Little Gem Southern Magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora ‘Little Gem’)
delivers the signature evergreen foliage and fragrant white flowers of Southern magnolia in a more compact, landscape-friendly form. Its dense, upright habit, glossy green leaves with warm brown undersides, and long bloom period make it a strong choice for smaller residential lots, entry landscapes, courtyards, and commercial planting designs.
Typically reaching about 20 to 35 feet tall with a relatively narrow spread, Little Gem works equally well as a specimen, flowering evergreen screen, or repeated architectural planting. Plant in full sun to partial shade with adequate drainage, and allow room for its mature canopy; it provides a refined, durable focal point with the unmistakable character of a Florida Southern magnolia.
