The Moonglow® Sweetbay Magnolia is a beautiful evergreen tree that stays evergreen even in zone 5. It forms a large tree to 35 feet tall, with an abundance of large white flowers from May to July. The blooms give out a rich vanilla perfume, that spreads all across the garden. This tree is a beautiful lawn specimen, or for the back of shrub beds. It makes an excellent screening tree, or an addition to a wild garden of native trees. It thrives beside rivers, ponds and lakes.

  • A striking evergreen magnolia tree
  • Flowers the color of moonlight are richly perfumed
  • Much more cold-resistant than the southern magnolia
  • Fully evergreen in zone 5
  • Grows well in wet ground and beside water

Plant the Moonglow® Sweetbay Magnolia in full sun or in partial shade, such as among deciduous trees. It grows in most soils, favoring richer, moist soils, and growing well even in ground that is permanently wet. It has no important pests or diseases, survives as a deciduous tree in zone 4, and needs no special care. Established trees have some drought resistance.
