Magnolia Susan 10L

Abundant deep pink-purple goblet shaped flowers sprout from this upright deciduous tree. The Magnolia susan boasts dark burgundy buds during winter. When spring comes, beautiful twisted petals emerge, giving a pleasing contrast to the rich green foliage.

The Magnolia susan is best planted in moist and well-drained soil and can grow to four metres, making it a lovely addition for a small garden. As the flowers are frost sensitive they are best kept out of frost pockets and windy exposed spots.

    Mycorrhizal Fungi and Your Plant

    This quick video will give you a better understanding of what Mycorrhizal Fungi is and how it can help your plant. This remarkable symbiotic relationship will work wonders for your garden.

    How Does It Work?

    Once joined with the plant this fungi will travel through the soil creating a truly massive root system. This 'hybrid' root system is highly efficient at finding nutrients from places where a plant's root cannot travel, releasing soil bound chemicals, including those from our trusted fertilisers, and transporting these back to its partner, a beneficial relationship that will persist throughout the life of the plant. A healthy plant with an established root system in a functional soil needs less intervention, chemical or physical.

"As I’ve only just planted it, and no surprise, don’t expect it to bloom quite yet as it is December, it is looking a very healthy strong plant. I bought another for my brother in law and it looked just as good a specimen as mine."

"I was so disappointed when I received my Magnolia Susan. The box it came in was battered. When I opened the box the magnolia was also battered and the leaves were all bruised. Eventually some of the leaves died off. I had bought the Magnolia Susan for my daughter-in-law who's name is Susan and could not give her this gift in the state it was in. After feeding the magnolia with high quality feed it eventually came back to life and looks how it should have been when I received it. A bit disappointed would be my comment. I don't think I will be ordering from Primrose again. Thank you."
