Teddy Bear Dwarf Southern Magnolia – 7 Gallon Pot (2-3′)

Love the evergreen Southern Magnolias but don’t have the room for a 50 feet tree? Unlike its larger cousins, ‘Teddy Bear’ is the best of the dwarfs in the family; maturing to a height of only 20-25 feet and a width of about 10-14 feet, which makes it a good fit when there’s limited space to work with. 

There are several other differences between Teddy Bear Magnolia and its larger cousins. Teddy Bear is much more compact and dense than other Southern Magnolia varieties. Its upright narrower form is densely covered with thicker and darker green oval-shaped leaves that are glossy on top with fuzzy orange-bronze undersides. The lateral branches grow more upward and much stronger than other varieties and the blooming period is much longer; flowering May through October. The beautiful and fragrant white flowers are 8 inches across and fill the the garden with the delightful, lemon-scented aroma we love from southern magnolias. A truly magnificent specimen in the landscape!
