Magnolia trees are among the most well-known flowering trees in the Southern states and are perhaps best known for their spectacular flowers! Big and bold, the Green Giant Magnolia Tree (Magnolia grandiflora 'Green Giant') is an amazing broadleaf evergreen tree with superior ornamental features!
From late spring into early summer, huge flowers burst into bloom, each up to 10 inches across! You'll adore the cup-shaped blossoms with their waxy, creamy white perfection, and equally heavenly fragrance! You'll love watching Bumblebees get 'pollen drunk' on Magnolias! They'll be rolling around in the pollen anthers two sheets to the wind! Who can blame them?
Beyond these big blossoms, the Green Giant Magnolia has many other fabulous features as well! Its leathery leaves reach a size of up to 8 inches and possess a gorgeous glossy sheen. Oval in appearance, the decorative, golden hue of the new growth eventually transitions to dark green with a green underside for a unique two-tone effect in the spring.
Fruit appears in fall in the form of brown cones that soon open to reveal scarlet berries, yet another decorative accent to this already exquisite tree. The fruit provides needed food for your birds and the lush foliage wildlife shelter all winter.
Landscape Application:
Green Giant Magnolia is moderate to fast-growing, with a coarse-textured, pyramidal habit. Growing to an impressive 50 - 60 foot height pretty quickly with a fantastic spread of 25 - 30 feet wide, these are gorgeous specimen trees for your front yard!
Plant one for a magnificent specimen tree that will attract attention to your home from far and wide! The glossy foliage provides the perfect year-round greenery for curb appeal and a dramatic backdrop for the lush blossoms!
Or use several Green Giant Magnolias as a lush, evergreen screen! Simply keep their lower limbs for coverage to the ground and surround yourself in noise-reducing, wind-blocking greenery all year round! Raise the canopy and create a lush shade tree you can bask beneath its limbs all year round!
- Gorgeous, Fragrant White Saucer-Shaped Flowers
- Fast Growing Broadleaf Evergreen
- 10-Inch Wide Blossoms For Pollinators
- Cone-Like Seed Pods For Birds
- Gorgeous Specimens, Shade, Privacy & Windbreaks
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Easy to grow Magnolias flower and grow best in full sun, needing at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Plant in about any kind of well-drained soil that is organically rich and slightly acidic. Moderate yet regular moisture access is important, especially for young trees, but once established they become self-sustaining, only needing supplemental moisture during prolonged drought.
Prune these low-maintenance trees after the initial flush of flowers fade if needed. Green Giant is quite hardy, able to withstand drought, urban environments, and seaside conditions. Even deer and rabbits tend to leave it alone!
- Full Sun Trees
- Well-Drained Soil
- Moderate Moisture Needs
- Prune After Flowering
- Heat, Humidity & Drought Tolerant
- Urban & Seashore Adaptable
Magnolias are always sought-after trees, gorgeous in any setting ... and Green Giant Magnolia is no exception. While it's not prolific in its production of flowers, its fantastic foliage, impressive stature, and hardy nature make it a must-have for your yard this year. Order one today!
