Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

An unusual and hard-to-find variety to add to your Magnolia collection! Magnolia ‘Royal Splendour’ features unique colouring with slender, tulip-shaped buds that open to shades of rosy-pink with a delicate blush of salmon. The flowers open in April/May, avoiding the worst of any late frosts, making ‘Royal Splendour’ a hardy choice for more northerly locations. Blooming from a young age, you won’t have to wait years to appreciate the stunning flowers, and you will have plenty of time to admire their beauty as each bloom lasts for up to 4 weeks. In late autumn, the deep green, glossy foliage turns yellow/orange. Height: 5m (16ft). Spread: 3m (10ft).

Plant in a sunny or semi shaded position that recieves a minimum of 4-6 hours of sunshine per day and is sheltered from cold winds and hard spring frosts. Suitable for acid soils only that are rich, moist and well-drained. Incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost to improve the soil prior to planting, mixing it thoroughly and deeply. Magnolia plants establish quicker when their roots are shaded. Following planting, apply a mulch of rotted bark chips, manure or garden compost, taking care not to mound it around the stem of the plant. When growing in a patio container use a blend of ericaceous compost mixed with John Innes No. 3.

Water regularly throughout the growing season until fully established. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted bark chips or garden compost to the base of the plant. Fertilise once a year in the spring with a slow release tree and shrub fertiliser.

Protect from cold winds and hard frosts which can cause foliar damage.

Plants in pots will be at increased risk of the root ball becoming completely frozen and should be moved into a sheltered location, conservatory or cool greenhouse over winter.

Tolerates pruning well. The best time to prune is after blooming. Remove old or diseased wood and trim to shape.
