🌿 Description
A magnificent evergreen tree with large, glossy dark-green leaves and large, fragrant creamy-white flowers. Available in tree and pyramid forms, it brings year-round greenery and an elegant architectural presence to the garden.
🏡 In the Garden
Ideal as a focal point, along garden edges, beside walls, entrances, or in large formal and Mediterranean-style gardens. The pyramid form creates a strong vertical accent, while the tree form gives a more natural, impressive presence.
☀️ Light
Prefers full sun to partial shade and a sheltered position.
🌡️ Climate & Elevation
Well suited to low and mid-elevation areas of Lebanon, generally from sea level to around 1,000–1,200 m in suitable sheltered locations. It tolerates moderate frost, but exposed sites with temperatures below about -5°C can cause damage, particularly to young plants and foliage.
💧 Watering
Water regularly while establishing, then during prolonged dry periods. Keep the soil moist but well drained.
✂️ Maintenance
Generally low maintenance. Light pruning can be used to maintain the desired tree or pyramid form.
💡 Plant Express Tip
Use a pyramid Magnolia where you want a strong vertical statement, or a mature tree as a luxurious year-round focal point.
