Description
Magnolia grandiflora is an iconic, majestic tree known for its large, creamy white flowers that can measure up to 12 inches (30 cm) across. The flowers have a sweet, citrus-like fragrance and bloom from late spring to early summer. The tree’s large, glossy evergreen leaves are dark green on top with a soft, bronze-colored underside, providing visual interest year-round. In fall, the tree produces large, cone-like fruit that adds further seasonal appeal.
Preferring full sun to partial shade and well-drained, slightly acidic soil, Magnolia grandiflora is ideal for planting in spacious gardens, along driveways, or as a specimen tree in parks or large landscapes. Hardy in USDA zones 7-10, it is relatively low-maintenance and can tolerate various soil types once established. Whether planted for its stunning flowers, fragrant blooms, or glossy foliage, Magnolia grandiflora offers a timeless, elegant addition to any landscape.
