Add a touch of dramatic elegance to your garden with Magnolia 'Susan', one of the most popular and reliable varieties of the "Little Girl" series. This award-winning deciduous tree is celebrated for its spectacular, late-spring display of large, narrow, tulip-shaped flowers in a striking shade of deep reddish-pink to purple.
Unlike other Magnolias, 'Susan' blooms a little later in the season, which helps protect its delicate buds from late spring frosts. The flowers open to reveal a slightly paler interior and release a soft, enchanting fragrance. Its slow-growing, upright, and bushy habit makes it an exceptional choice for small gardens, large patio containers, or as a vibrant focal specimen in any border. Supplied established in a 3L nursery pot.
