Enjoy all the classic features of a full-size magnolia—fragrant white flowers, elegant branching, broad glossy leaves—in a highly versatile, compact form. A dwarf variety, Royal Star Magnolia is one of spring’s first bloomers, with double-layered flowers emerging from soft pink buds. Fast growing, cold- and heat-hardy, it’s a perfect low-maintenance, high-impact choice for enhancing small gardens and landscapes.

Noteworthy, Early Bloomer: Royal Star is one of the earlier flowering trees to bloom in spring, with abundant, double white flowers that unfold in a unique, star-shaped form. Like other magnolias, the blooms have a delightful fragrance and an extended bloom time—and attract early season pollinators.

Year-Round Visual Interest: After spring flowers fade, glossy green foliage emerges. In fall, the smooth, silvery-green bark is accented by small fruit pods that develop orange-red berries wildlife will love. Even in winter, a naturally attractive branching pattern and rounded form, coupled with buds that look like pussy willow catkins, make this a captivating focal point through all four seasons.

Resilient and Low-Maintenance: Smaller than traditional magnolia trees, Royal Star boasts a moderate height of 10-15'. This more compact size allows the plant to fit effortlessly into smaller gardens or tighter spaces. Combined with its significant cold- and heat-hardiness, and a naturally rounded habit, Royal Star is a beacon for gardeners looking for a low-maintenance addition to their garden.
