  • The leaves are stiff, elliptical, dark green on the upper side and dark rusty on the underside.
  • It grows up to 8m tall. The flowers are white, 20 cm or more across, with a citrus-like fragrance.
  • It flowers from spring onwards, lasting all summer.
  • Growing. The soil should be fertile, moist but well-drained, with peat added (a mixture of compost, peat and sand is ideal).
  • Grow the magnolia well mulched to prevent the soil from drying out.
  • When digging around the magnolia, be careful of shallow roots.
  • Avoid cutting magnolias if possible.
  • Pruning is generally poorly tolerated; if necessary, very young plants can be shaped immediately after flowering.
  • Magnolias are fully hardy to about -29°C. They flower during April and May.
