Details
Magnolia 'Nigra' the black lily magnolia, is a compact beautiful shrub that eventually becomes a small, multi-stemmed ornamental tree. Large goblet shaped flowers which appear later than most magnolias – mostly in late spring and early summer, then sporadically through to early autumn. The lightly fragrant flowers are dark red-purple externally and creamy white/pink inside, creating a lovely contrast.
Please note that deciduous plants naturally lose their leaves during the colder months. If you wish to check the health of your plant, you can scrape a small piece of bark off from the lower part of the main stem. Under the brown layers there should be healthy green growth.

The size of the plant can vary greatly.
Most will be between 10-30cm tall unless they are naturally low growing plants or if you are buying herbaceous plants in winter.
In order to lessen our environmental impact, all of our plants will be removed from their plastic cell trays or pots before sending. Ensure you are ready to pot your plants when they arrive.
