- This native of China, Korea and Japan is a small deciduous tree with a broad, spreading habit. It produces fragrant flowers in late spring that may appear sporadically throughout summer. Each small bowl-shaped bloom is white and has a distinctive cluster of red stamens in the center. These are slightly fragrant and glow against its large, oval, dark to gray-green leaves. The aggregate fruits that follow are a pink. In fall, the foliage turns shades of yellow and gold before dropping off.
- This easy-to-grow magnolia grows best in full to partial sun and fertile, acid to neutral soil. Avoid disturbing its roots, even with a lawnmower, as this may cause stress and decline. Placing a thick carpet of mulch under its canopy will help protect the roots. This species is great for large open lawns and foundations. This slow-growing, broad-spreading small tree is an ideal specimen plant. It is particularly stunning when viewed from underneath.
