• Somebody save some petals for the rest of us… The flowers of 'Water Lily' have among the most numerous petals of any magnolia, with blooms consistently presenting up to 32 petals!
• The starry, snow-white, softly-scented flowers appear in spring, typically a little later than other varieties, adding grace, charm and unrivalled impact to any garden.
• A slow grower and ultimately reaching just a few metres tall, 'Water Lily' makes the perfect addition to any small or medium-sized garden. What’s more, it’s easy to grow, fully hardy (H6) and requires little to no pruning. Result.
• Native to Japan, plant 'Water Lily' alongside maples, rhododendrons and peonies to give your garden more of a Japanese feel.
• Plant your magnolia in a sheltered position that receives either full sun (at least six hours of direct sunlight per day) or partial shade. It prefers slightly acidic soil but don’t worry too much if it tends a little towards the alkaline or chalky.
• Our mature trees are grown in Air-Pots®, the only type of pot to completely eliminate root circling. A unique design stimulates air pruning for a mass of healthy fibrous roots, which results in a healthy tree that will establish quickly in your garden. With each Air-Pot® made to last up to 20 years, we reuse them on the nursery and wrap your mature tree in hessian for delivery - but if you’d rather keep your tree potted, simply add an Air-Pot® to your basket along with your tree.
