Magnolia Loebner 'Merrill'

FamilyMagnoliaceae

Magnolia × loebneri 'Merrill' is a vigorous and majestic magnolia, appreciated for its abundant flowering of large, lightly scented white flowers, borne on bare branches in early spring. It offers an impressive presence as an isolated plant or at the back of a large clump, with a rounded and well-balanced silhouette. Very hardy and floriferous, it adapts well to different types of soil and resists spring frosts better than other magnolias. A sure choice for a spectacular and structuring bloom.
