Details
Common name: Magnolia 'Genie'
Description: Magnolia 'Genie' is a superb compact deciduous magnolia from New Zealand that has become one of the most popular magnolias for UK gardens in recent years. It produces rich, deep burgundy-purple goblet-shaped flowers with remarkable freedom, beginning to flower from a very young age — often while still in the pot — and continuing to produce sporadic flushes through the season. The compact, upright habit makes it ideal for smaller gardens, and its vigour and reliability are impressive for such a deeply coloured variety. A genuinely outstanding modern magnolia.
Other benefits: flowers from a very young age; compact and upright habit; deep rich colour; repeat flowering through the season; suitable for smaller gardens
Wildlife attraction: bees and other pollinating insects
Height & spread (approx.) at 10 years: 3m x 2m
Position: full sun to partial shade; sheltered from late frosts and cold winds
Soil pH: neutral to acid (pH 5.5–7.0); fertile, moist but well-drained soil
Moisture: moderate; mulch well and water during dry periods in establishment years
