Quick Overview:

Recently introduced to the gardening world, Fairy Magnolias are unique, very dense and bushy evergreens that display an extraordinary profusion of deliciously fragrant flowers on established specimens. From early to late spring and sporadically through summer and into fall, ‘Fairy Blush’ features LOADS of very pretty creamy-white flowers blushed in lilac-pink. Unlike other magnolias that produce their flowers only at the stem tips, Fairy Blush produces hers all up and down the stems and branches. An upright bushy habit 10 to 12 feet tall and 5 to 7 feet wide makes her a fine selection for a specimen in small garden spaces or in groupings or as a flowering hedge or privacy screen where space allows. As the plant grows taller lower branches can be removed to form a highly attractive small specimen tree.

Description

Winter hardy to USDA Zones 8-10 where this magnolia is best grown in evenly moist, fertile, slightly acidic, organically rich, well-drained loams in part shade. Tolerates full sun, but foliage may turn a less attractive yellow green. Also tolerates substantial shade, but plant foliage tends to open up. Site in locations protected from strong winds. In areas near the northern edge of the growing range, avoid locating plants in southern exposures close to houses where the buds may be induced to open too early in spring. Plants appreciate consistent and regular moisture throughout the year, and are generally intolerant of soil extremes (dry or wet). Mulch root zone.
