An upright and dependable variety of Magnolia grandiflora, characterized by glossy green leaves and a conical growth habit. It produces large, creamy-white, fragrant flowers during the warmer months and blooms from an early age. The underside of its leaves has a contrasting rusty-brown colour.

Full sun to part shade.
Maintenance:
Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape or remove any damaged or diseased growth. Apply a general fertiliser in spring to promote healthy growth. Will benefit from a yearly application of mulch.
Water Requirements:
Moderately drought tolerant once established but will benefit from supplementary watering. Will not tolerate waterlogged soil.
Seasonal Interest:
Late spring to autumn flowering.

Landscape Uses

This variety is reasonably quick-growing and is a good choice for pleaching, tall screening, or as a specimen tree. It can also be grown effectively in large containers. It is a great choice for cottage and formal gardens. Plant with other classics such as Camellias and Hydrangeas.
