GardenersDream Magnolia Collection (9cm, Pack of 2)

• Characteristics: Upright, deciduous shrubs with attractive and distinct large buds. The buds go on to blossom into showy flowers that are pleasantly fragranced.
• Growth and Spread: Ultimate height and spread of up to 4m, depending on variety.
• Care and Maintenance: Plant in moist but well-drained soil in a sheltered spot that enjoys plenty of sunshine. Pruning generally isn’t required, but you may wish to cut the plant back slightly after flowering to maintain shape or remove damaged branches. Water regularly during dry spells.
• Period of Interest: Blooms burst into life in spring and last until early summer. Some varieties will continue to flower until August.
• Top Tip: Limit pruning to a few branches at a time and over a long period to prevent the plant becoming stressed and refusing to flower.

Ever popular with gardeners, Magnolia is a classic shrub that provides vibrant colour in spring and summer. Ornate flowers blossom early in the season and are complemented by glossy green foliage. Magnolias in full bloom are an eye-catching focal point and will be an ideal feature plant for your garden.

Magnolia shrubs are relatively slow growing and can take around 10-20 years to reach full maturity. They are easy to grow, requiring very little maintenance once established. Interestingly, Magnolia is a prehistoric plant and has been around since the time of the dinosaurs. As bees didn’t exist back then, Magnolias were pollinated by a range of insects, including beetles. The bright fragrant flowers will attract bees, birds, butterflies and other pollinators to your garden.

Our Magnolia Collection includes a growers selection from common varieties such as Rosea, Stellata, Susan and Soulangeana or more unusual types like Betty, Fairy Cream, Galaxy, Nigra and more. Included are differing flower colours and types, from pink, purple, bicolour, white and cream shades forming traditional tulip-shaped flowers or more exotic star-shaped oriental bursts.

Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only - The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.
