Magnolia ‘Little Gem’ is a compact, evergreen Magnolia that brings year-round beauty and elegance to the garden. Unlike larger Magnolias, this variety is perfect for smaller spaces, growing with a neat, upright habit while still producing the same stunning flowers. From summer through to early autumn, it bears large, creamy-white, cup-shaped blooms with a rich fragrance, which stand out beautifully against the glossy, dark green leaves with their coppery-brown undersides.
Ideal as a feature tree, specimen shrub, or even grown in a large container, ‘Little Gem’ offers structure, evergreen cover, and seasonal flowers all in one. It’s hardy, reliable, and easy to care for once established, making it a popular choice for both traditional and contemporary gardens.
Our plants can be planted all year round providing the ground isn't frozen or waterlogged at time of planting, for more infoclick here
