Description
Introducing Magnolia 'Pink Perfection,' an exquisite creation that is the result of a fortunate chance seedling from the renowned Magnolia 'Encore.' This rare loebneri-type variety inherits the floriferous nature of its parent but takes petal abundance to new heights, boasting an incredible 42-48 lilac-pink petals on each fragrant, star-like bloom. The flowers grace bare branches in spring, opening in succession to create a breathtaking and enduring display. With a slow-growing, compact habit, 'Pink Perfection' evolves into a bushy, rounded small tree or large shrub, making it an ideal choice for small gardens or as a captivating container plant. Versatility is a hallmark of 'Pink Perfection,' thriving in both sunny and semi-shaded positions, demanding minimal 4-6 hours of daily sunshine. Adaptable to acid-rich, moist, and well-drained soils, this magnolia establishes quickly, particularly when its roots are shaded. Whether planted in the ground or a large container with a blend of ericaceous compost, it promises to enchant with its stunning blooms. Regular watering, a spring mulch, and annual fertilisation contribute to its health and vigour. 'Pink Perfection' tolerates pruning well, with the best time for shaping being after the blooming season, ensuring a tailored and picturesque addition to your garden. Supplied as 1x Bareroot.
