Magnolia Grandiflora Lollipop

This breathtaking 3-meter Magnolia grandiflora has been meticulously trained into a grand "lollipop" form, serving as a sophisticated, high-impact architectural feature. It boasts the species' signature large, leathery, dark-green leaves with their stunning, rusty-brown, felt-like undersides. In the summer, it produces spectacular, creamy-white, lemon-scented flowers that are nothing short of iconic. Standing at 3 meters, it creates an instant focal point of luxury and structure, perfect for framing a grand entrance or adding a permanent, evergreen presence to a terrace or formal garden.

Size (H × W)

300 x 100 cm

Sunlight

Full Sun to Partial Shade. While it can tolerate light shade, it produces the most profuse, fragrant flowers when grown in a sunny, warm, and sheltered position.

Watering

Moderate. Keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season. As a large specimen in a formal shape, it should not be allowed to dry out completely, as this can cause foliage drop. In the winter, reduce watering but ensure the root ball remains slightly damp.

Soil & Drainage

Thrives in rich, fertile, slightly acidic, and well-drained soil. If planting in a container, use a high-quality, free-draining loam-based compost mixed with grit to ensure the roots remain healthy and aerated.
