Magnolia kobus Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Best grown in a warm position in a moderately rich free soil of an open texture[1]. Succeeds in acid or neutral soils in sun or part shade[184]. Fairly lime tolerant[200, 202]. The branches are brittle so a sheltered position is required[200]. Very tolerant of atmospheric pollution[200]. A very hardy plant, tolerating temperatures down to about -28°c[200]. The fleshy roots are easily damaged and any transplanting is best done during a spell of mild moist weather in late spring[182]. Plants take 10 - 15 years to flower after being planted out[202]. The leaves are slightly aromatic[188]. Very closely related to M. stellata, differing in having 3 narrow sepals and 6 - 9 broader petals. For further Magnolia kobus gardening information |
