Did you know that Magnolia 'Little Gem' is also used in the floristy industry as a backing plant, the green and copper contasting foliage is sought after.

 

'Little Gem' is one of the most versatile landscaping plants available. They grow well climates ranging from cool temperate through to sub tropical. They do require a humus rich moist but well drained soil, however other than this, a position in full sun to part shade is all that is required and it is frost hardy

Valued by landscapers for it's foliage, the glossy green foliage contrasted with the fealty copper underside of the leaves make it a great plant to add interest to a screen or a hedge. Also used as a specimen plant but growing equally well in pots or containers.

Much talk about this being a 'dwarf' evergreen magnolia. In the right conditions it will reach over 5 meters, however in cooler areas 3m is more usual, so maybe a 'small growing' magnolia. With a spread of 1.5 - 2.5 m try planrting at 2m centers for hedging.

Flowers appear in spring to summer and are white, slightly fragrant and attractive, however if it's really spectacular flowers you are after maybe this is not the right magnolia.

'Little Gem' is a fairly tough plant once established and if you can provide a cool root run and a little protection from extreme temperature and hot winds it requires little care.

Pruning to form a hedge is easy, and tip pruning after flowering will help promote a bushy habit.
