Compact Southern Magnolia with Fragrant White Blooms
'Little Gem' is a slow growing, upright evergreen broadleaf tree that reaches 20 to 25 feet tall and spreads 10 to 15 feet wide. This compact Southern magnolia features large, fragrant white flowers that bloom from late spring through summer, creating a spectacular display. The glossy dark green leaves with rusty-brown undersides provide year-round beauty and texture. The compact size makes this variety perfect for smaller landscapes where you want the classic beauty of Southern magnolia without the massive size of the species. This premium 15 gallon size provides maximum instant impact and the most mature presence in the landscape. Thriving in full sun to partial shade and preferring well-drained, slightly acidic soil, Little Gem delivers reliable performance with minimal maintenance once established.
