With petals that twist elegantly and reach up to 15cm across, you'll enjoy easy maintenance and versatility for smaller spaces. The plant thrives in rich, moist acidic soil and prefers sun or semi-shade, making it simple to establish and care for. Delivered in a 9cm pot with full growing instructions, you'll find it a rewarding addition whether you're pickling young flowers for salads or simply enjoying the colour. Culinary note: The young flowers, once separated, can be pickled and then used either on their own as a treat or in salads. Plant magnolias in a sunny or semi-shaded position with protection from cold winds and hard spring frosts. Magnolias prefer a rich, moist, well-drained, acid to neutral soil. Incorporate plenty of well-rotted manure or garden compost to improve the soil prior to planting, mixing it thoroughly and deeply. Magnolia plants establish quicker when their roots are shaded. Following planting, apply a mulch of rotted bark chips, manure or garden compost, taking care not to mound it around the stem of the plant. When growing magnolias in a patio container, use a blend of ericaceous compost mixed with John Innes No. 3. Water regularly throughout the growing season until young magnolias are fully established. In spring, apply a mulch of well-rotted bark chips or garden compost to the base of the plant. Magnolias require little pruning other than to maintain their shape and remove damaged stems or crossing stems.
