Magnolia Ann is a very beautiful mid spring blooming magnolia that is less likely to suffer frost damage in spring. It is best grown in moist, organically rich, acidic, well-drained loam in full sun to part shade in a location protected from high winds (minimize potential damage to leaves). It is also recommended to avoid southern exposures close to houses where the buds may be induced to open too early in spring. It is a slow-growing, deciduous shrub or small tree that grows to 8-10 feet tall and as wide. Chalice-shaped flowers 7-9 inches long are slightly fragrant. Flowers may occasionally bloom in mid summer with the leaves turning yellow in the fall. USDA zones 4 – 8
