Star Magnolias are compact and slow growing, making them ideal for smaller borders and containers. Magnolia stellata 'Rosea' is a pretty cultivar that will certainly make an impact in spring. Soft pink blooms erupt from furry buds that adorn the bare branches. As the flowers age they fade to white with a delicate pink blush. This charming deciduous shrub becomes cloaked in handsome green foliage as the flowers fade and colourful cone-like fruit take their place. A particularly elegant choice for sheltered borders, patio containers and woodland gardens. Height and spread: 3m (10’).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Choose a sunny or semi shaded position that is protected from cold winds and hard spring frosts. Magnolias prefer a moist, well drained acid to neutral soil that is high in organic matter. If you don’t have acid soil, incorporate plenty of ericaceous compost into your border prior to planting. Plant bareroot Magnolias at the same depth as they were previously planted. Backfill the planting hole and water well to settle the soil.

Water regularly throughout the growing season until young Magnolia plants are fully established. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or compost to the base of the plant. Magnolias require little pruning other than to maintain their shape and remove damaged stems.
