MAGNOLIA VIRGINIANA
Grower Notes:
The Sweet Bay Magnolia (also called the Swamp Magnolia, Laurel Magnolia or Beaver Tree) has attractive shiny green, leathery foliage with silver underneath. Foliage is evergreen to semi-evergreen in warmer climates and semi-evergreen to fully deciduous in colder climates.
The flowers are creamy white with a sweet, lemony fragrance. They appear mid-spring and may continue sporadically through the summer. Cone-like, aggregate fruits with bright red seeds mature in fall. Excellent specimen tree for the landscape. It will grow in wet soils near swamps, ponds, and streams.
