Description
An outstanding American selection raised at the Arnold Arboretum Boston in the late 1930s and the winner of more horticultural awards than you can shake a stick at!
Very numerous velvety flower cases become noticeable after Christmas suggesting the promise that spring is around the corner.
This Magnolia does well in all soils- including chalky ones.
Small and of rounded habit it has large fragrant white flowers in spring that are produced in great abundance.
Very attractive in both parks hard areas and in my garden.
It thrives best on free draining land and establishes quicker if competing grass and plants are kept at least one metre radius away from its stem. Its green leaves turn to clear yellow in the autumn before dropping in November. Magnolia loebneri Merrill is a superb flowering tree for a small garden.
