Virginia Magnolia 'Moonglow'
FamilyMagnoliaceae
Magnolia virginiana 'Moonglow' is a semi-evergreen variety with glossy, dark green foliage with a silvery underside that beautifully captures the light. It is distinguished by its creamy white, highly fragrant flowers, which open in late spring and renew themselves in summer. Hardier than the type species, 'Moonglow' retains its foliage better in cold climates and offers a more upright growth habit. It is ideal for flowering hedges, elegant isolates, or landscaping with exotic accents, while being perfectly adapted to moist and acidic soils.
