Sweet Bay Magnolia Shrubs are a gardener's favorite, known for their sweet, creamy blooms and fresh lemony scent. Scientifically called Magnolia virginiana, this shrub takes on a unique columnar shape and can reach up to 20 feet in height and width. It is a medium to fast grower and thrives in various soils and locations.
This shrub blooms with dense green foliage and stunning white flowers from late spring to early summer. It is pest-resistant, making it ideal as a showpiece or ornamental addition. Leaves are glossy, green on top, and silver-hued underneath.
In spring, creamy white blooms emerge through the dense foliage, initially cup-shaped and gradually flattening to reveal the attractive flower center. The blooms attract bees and butterflies, adding life to the garden.
In late fall, the shrub produces scarlet red seeds at branch tips, attracting wildlife such as squirrels, songbirds, and waterfowl. In northern regions, it is deciduous, while in southern regions, it behaves as an evergreen.
A unique feature of Sweet Bay Magnolia is how its flowers highlight the dense green foliage. As the wind moves through the shrub, creamy white blooms pop against the green, and the silver underside of the leaves adds shimmer. It grows well individually or in a grove setting.
