Star Magnolia
Magnolia stellata 'Royal Star' is a dwarf magnolia with vibrant spring blooms, cherished for its abundant, sweetly scented, double star-shaped white flowers that appear on bare branches before the foliage emerges. This cultivar is distinguished by slightly later flowering than the species, giving it better resistance to spring frosts. Its compact, rounded, and dense habit makes it a perfect choice for small gardens, entryway borders, rockeries, or low hedges. Adapted to Quebec's climate, it thrives in rich, cool, well-drained, preferably slightly acidic soils, with sun to partial shade exposure. Easy to grow and very hardy, 'Royal Star' combines visual impact, fragrance, and ease of maintenance, offering a bright and delicate spring display in residential landscapes.
