Slow-growing evergreen tree with a pyramidal to rounded growth habit to 20-25’ tall and wide. This compact-growing dwarf variety features highly-glossy deep-green leaves with attractive brownish-colored undersides highlighted with an abundance of eye-catching 4-6” wide cup-shaped fragrant bright-white flowers that appear late-spring into summer. Flowers are followed by cone-like rusty-brown seed pods that mature in summer. Well-suited as a lawn park or open area specimen and is ideal for smaller gardens where a full-sized Magnolia might be overwhelming. Prefers regular watering in a full sun exposure.
