Magnolia Fairy Blush is a recent introduction from the well known New Zealand breeder, Mark Jury. A completely new concept in evergreen Magnolias, these splendid plants are more shrubs, as opposed to the more traditional tree forms of evergreen Magnolias. They make stunning large shrubs with luscious dark green leaves and in spring an abundance of fragrant pink blush flowers that then appear intermittently until autumn. Excellent as individual specimens or in pots and planters on the patio. This plant makes a superb, if rather expensive hedge! Easy to grow in a sunny or semi shade location. They are ericaceous so while they grow well in most fertile, free draining, acidic to neutral soils, they will not survive in soil with a high pH. Really a very beautiful shrub. This plant can be grown in a pot or other container. In containers use good quality, ericaceous compost and ensure you feed regularly as a hungry plant is a poor performer. We recommend Osmoscote pro 8-9 month applied during potting or in the early spring. One application gives all the nutrients the plant requires for the whole year.
