Magnolia x Alba - White Champaca
Magnolia x Alba - White Champaca
Magnolia × alba is a fast-growing medium-sized tree with an upright habit and attractive, evergreen, lime-green leaves. It grows up to 100 feet (30 m) tall. The lovely, orchid-like, highly fragrant white flowers appear from mid-spring to fall.
Although different species of Magnolia can tolerate slightly different conditions. In general, they will do best with slightly acidic, moist, loose, well-draining soil. To mimic Magnolia's natural conditions, amend heavy soil with peat moss and compost. Grow best in Zones 7-10, depending on variety, with a few cultivars hardy to zone 5. Full sun to partial shade. Moist, peaty soil can help Magnolias tolerate full sun. If you're pushing the limits of cold tolerance, avoid planting Magnolias in southern exposure since the leaves can be damaged by the winter sun, and flowers may open prematurely. Magnolias benefit from irrigation in the first few years, and then they are tolerant of moderate drought.
They need room to grow to their full mature size and width. So while looking small when first planted, they'll grow to fill up space over time.
