A beautiful flowering accent tree for home landscapes, smothered in showy and fragrant white cup-shaped flowers in spring through summer; large glossy leaves with rust undersides and a neat pyramidal habit of growth.
Victoria Magnolia is an evergreen tree with a distinctive and refined pyramidal form. Its relatively coarse texture can be used to stand it apart from other landscape plants with finer foliage.
This is a relatively low maintenance tree and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Victoria Magnolia is smothered in stunning fragrant white cup-shaped flowers held atop the branches from mid spring to mid summer. It has dark green foliage with coppery-bronze undersides. The large pointy leaves turn coppery-bronze in the fall, which persists throughout the winter. The fruits are showy red pods displayed from early to late fall.
Victoria Magnolia will grow to be about 40 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 40 feet. It has a low canopy with a typical clearance of 3 feet from the ground and should not be planted underneath power lines. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 70 years or more.
