Why you should plant Magnolia grandiflora "Little Gem"

Douglas Hunt
by Douglas Hunt
Because the blossoms smell as good as this one looks. Plus, it's hardy from Long Island to South Florida. Plus, it has a tidy upright habit and is perfectly sized for many peoples' yard. Plus, it's virtually problem-free. What more do you want from a tree?

    Our magnolia is now 30-35' tall & still growing! Glad we planted it out in the middle of the front yard!
