Japanese Magnolias

 

Bring a touch of class to your garden with Japanese magnolias.  Natives to China and Japan, these small oriental trees are fast becoming a favorite in the South, as they add color and interest throughout much of the year.  Japanese magnolias (Magnolia x soulangiana) are bred in different sizes and hues today, but are praised mostly for their large, saucer like blossoms that open in late winter and early spring.

 

Averaging 15 to 20 feet tall, saucer magnolias are moderately fast growing trees, and perform best in full sunlight.  Plant them as accent trees or large shrubs by the corner of your house, near your water garden, or front and center in your lawn—no matter where you integrate them, their captivating presence is sure to satisfy you.  Outstanding companions include ‘August Beauty’ gardenias, ‘Knock Out’ roses, and ‘Purple Diamond’ loropetalums.  Add also ‘Artist Blue’ ageratum, osteospermum, and geraniums for early spring color.
