$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Magnolia stellata 'Double Star' produces full fragrant white flowers in early spring, each bloom opening with numerous slender petals that create a full star-shaped display around pale yellow stamens. The blossoms appear along bare branches before the foliage emerges, filling the plant with soft seasonal color. After flowering, oval green leaves unfold and form a neat canopy through the growing season.

This cultivated selection traces its heritage to Magnolia stellata native to Japan. In gardens it brings early seasonal interest to borders, courtyards, and specimen plantings where the abundant spring flowers brighten the landscape before many shrubs and trees leaf out.
