Magnolia ‘Royal Star’

The Royal Star Magnolia (Magnolia stellata 'Royal Star') is a popular, compact, deciduous shrub or small tree known for its large, fragrant white star-shaped flowers in early spring before the leaves emerge. It thrives in moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil in full sun to part shade, reaches 10-20 feet tall and wide, and is suitable for small gardens, foundation plantings, or as a specimen tree. This variety is especially valued for its hardiness, low-maintenance requirements, and year-round appeal, offering lush foliage that turns a golden color in the fall.  

• Bloom Time: Early to mid-spring
• Light Requirements: Full Sun to Part Shade (4 to 6+ Hours)
• Soil Requirements: Consistent moisture is key. Needs moist, rich, well-draining, acidic soil.
