Like all other Magnolia shrubs, the Royal Star Magnolia is one of the first plants to welcome spring. Pink buds give way to dazzling, star-shaped, white flowers that bloom in early spring before this shrub even sets leaves. The stunning double blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies. By the time the flowers fade, this dwarf tree will be covered in medium-green, elliptical-shaped leaves that will stay in place throughout the summer. 

Royal Star Magnolia is a multi-stemmed, deciduous, dwarf tree with an upright growth habit. Plant this Magnolia in a perennial bed, border, or mass planting for the biggest impact. It makes a great focal point and provides visual interest in early spring. Grow the Royal Star Magnolia as a perennial in USDA zones 4 through 8.

Royal Star Magnolia Care

This tree needs full sun to partial shade to grow well. The ideal area will receive at least 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. It prefers rich, moist, well-drained, and slightly acidic soil. Water this tree consistently for the first growing season and thereafter every week or two once established.

Feed this Magnolia starting in the second growing season. Use a balanced fertilizer every two months, beginning in the spring. Prune the plant to create a desirable shape after the flowers fall away.

Royal Star Magnolia Spacing

The Royal Star Magnolia is a lovely dwarf tree that will reach 12 to 20 feet tall and 12 to 18 feet wide. Space plants 10 to 12 feet apart when creating a dense planting.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
