Description
‘Royal Star’ Magnolia has larger and more showy flowers than the species…and they’re fragrant! LOADS of pure white flowers are 4 inches across with 25 ribbon-like petals on each flower. Royal Star blooms about two weeks later than the species, in early spring, so the flowers are less susceptible to damage from a late frost. All grown up, this beauty might reach 15 to 20 feet tall with a spreading, rounded canopy to about 10 to 15 feet wide. We’ve seen no problems with pests or diseases.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing upright to 15 to 20 feet tall and 10 to 15 feet wide, the Royal Star Magnolia is ideal for use as a large specimen shrub or small tree in sunny to partially shaded landscape and woodland borders or to frame corners of a tall home or other buildings. As she grows, lower branches can be removed to form a highly attractive and colorful small tree. A fine addition to white theme gardens, fragrance gardens and cottage gardens.
Growing Preferences
Royal Star Magnolia is easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained acidic soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. She prefers full sun for best flowering, however will handle some partial shade. In the South, some filtered sun during the hottest mid-afternoon hours of summer will be appreciated. Avoid constantly soggy or wet soils. In alkaline soils, apply soil sulfur and/or chelated iron to increase acidity. Pruning usually isn’t necessary, however stray or damaged branches can be pruned immediately after flowering in spring. Feed after flowering in spring with a mild organic plant food or a well-balanced shrub and tree food containing iron or sulfur.
