About Pot Grown Magnolia 'Susan'

Deciduous Magnolia Susan is a bushy shrub that has big, green leaves, and from the middle of Spring/Summer, gorgeous, fragrant flowers. You will sometimes even be treated with cone-like fruits.

This is a stunning shrub if you are looking for something to fill that space in a small garden and can reach an ultimate height and spread of 4m x 3m.

Key Features

This 40/60cm potted Magnolia Susan plant is slow-growing but will reach up to 4m high when planted in good conditions.

We recommend planting Magnolia Susan in a sheltered, sunny, or partially shaded position, and in clay, loam, or sand-based soils- It should be moist and well-drained, too. It is also recommended to have this plant South, West, or East facing.

Growth rate: Slow
Ideal height: 4m Tall
Soil type: Clay, loam, sand
Aspect: Full sun, semi-shade
Evergreen foliage? No

Pruning & Care

As it is pot grown, you can easily leave the plant in its pot for a few days/weeks before planting it. Just ensure you keep the plant well-watered, and it gets enough sun. Don't leave it for too long, however, as you don't want the roots becoming root bound.

Magnolia Susan requires very little pruning. In the middle of Summer, you will only need to remove the diseased, broken, or crossing branches. We also recommend adding a bit of mulch in Spring, especially if it has dry soil.
