Magnolia Royal Star

Magnolia stellata Royal Star, commonly known as Star Magnolia, is a deciduous tree celebrated for its spectacular early spring bloom. This variety is particularly noted for its abundance of large, star-shaped white flowers that burst into bloom before the foliage emerges, creating a breathtaking display.

Growing to a height and spread of approximately 3 metres, Magnolia stellata Royal Star is an ideal choice for small gardens or as a focal point in larger landscapes. Its compact, rounded form and slow growth rate make it a manageable and appealing addition to any garden setting.

This magnolia variety prefers a sunny to partially shaded location with well-drained, acidic to neutral soil. It's hardy and relatively low maintenance, requiring minimal pruning only to maintain its shape and remove any damaged branches.
