This exceptional deciduous Magnolia Red Lucky often flowers twice a year once in spring & then again in late summer. It produces beautiful white petals that are flushed on the outside with deep pink markings. A fantastic shrub that is ideal for the back of a large border or a woodland garden & requires little maintenance.

Type: Hardy Shrub
Flowering period: Apr-May

Height:
6m
Spread: 6m

Plant magnolias in a sunny or semi shaded position with protection from cold winds & hard spring frosts. Magnolias prefer a rich moist well drained acid to neutral soil.

Following planting apply a mulch of rotted bark chips manure or garden compost taking care not to mound it around the stem of the plant.

Water regularly throughout the growing season until young magnolias are fully established. In spring apply a mulch of well rotted bark chips or garden compost to the base of the plant. Magnolias require little pruning other than to maintain their shape & remove damaged stems or crossing stems.
