Magnolia ‘Heaven Scent’

The ideal large shrub for a small garden, Magnolia ‘Heaven Scent’ is compact, and with a candelabra habit, complemented by the most fantastic spring displays of bright pink, perfumed flowers. Magnolia ‘Heaven Scent’ flowers in late spring, so those precious blossoms will usually miss any damaging frosts. The goblet flowers are 10cm in length, and open in rich pink, fading to soft pink, but with a constant red stripe down the centre of each bloom. The flowers are richly fragrant, with an aroma similar to honey. This Magnolia is slow growing and trouble free making it ideal for small gardens. Following the spring blossoms, the tree will produce its foliage, which is a lovely deep green colour. If you only have space for one tree in your garden, make this your choice! Height and spread: up to 10m (30′).

Culinary note: The young flowers, once separated, can be pickled and then used either on their own as a treat or in salads. For more details about edible flowers click here.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
