Product description
A bushy evergreen with an unusually early blooming period, the Magnolia ‘Fairy Blush’ is an interesting variety well-known for its easy maintenance and nice, even spread of flowers which appear all along the stem and provide a nice bright contrast with the dark green foliage behind. The flowers are slightly scented and appear as pink-flushed white blooms in Spring, with occasional second blooms appearing in Summer and Autumn.
Plant in fertile, moist, well-drained soil and keep in full or partial sun. A sheltered position is recommended as this variety is susceptible to strong winds and harsh frosts, which may cause foliage damage and dieback.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may, therefore, differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. This plant will be supplied in a grower’s pot.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Magnolias benefit from protection against strong winds, which can damage their delicate flowers.
How to Water
Magnolias prefer regular watering, especially during dry spells. Ensure the soil is consistently moist but not waterlogged. Deep watering is recommended for strong root development.
How to Plant
Plant Magnolias in well-draining, slightly acidic soil in a sunny or partially shaded spot. Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball, place the plant, and fill with soil. Water well after planting, and mulch to retain moisture and prevent weeds.
