Our Saucer Magnolia Trees are grown in 1-gallon pots and produce fragrant, saucer-shaped pink flowers. These trees thrive in growing zones 4-9.
Saucer magnolia trees, also known as Magnolia x soulangeana, are deciduous trees that are native to China. They are known for their large, fragrant flowers that bloom in spring. The flowers can be white, pink, or purple, and they can be up to 10 inches in diameter.
Saucer magnolia trees are relatively easy to care for. They prefer full sun and well-drained soil. They are drought tolerant once established, but they do appreciate regular watering during the first year after planting. Saucer magnolia trees are also relatively pest and disease resistant.

Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.
We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.
