GardenersDream

Lennei is a Tulip Magnolia variety with oval, dark green leaves to 25cm. From mid to late-spring, the shrub is decorated with large, goblet-shaped flowers, purple-pink on the outside and almost white inside. These blooms emerge just before the foliage, creating a striking blossom-like effect. Magnolias are perfect for adding height interest to beds and borders. They also work well as standalone specimens and grow well in garden pots and containers. Choose a sheltered spot and plant your Magnolia shrub in full sun or partial shade in moist but well-draining soil. Protect the plant against late frosts, which may damage emerging flower buds in spring. Water regularly until established, then thoroughly but infrequently during dry spells. Lightly prune between mid-summer and early autumn to tidy the shrub and remove any dead or damaged branches.
