The name of this magnolia comes from the characteristic shape of the flowers in full bloom, resembling stars. A shrub with a round shape, growing up to about 3.5 meters.

Usage: Recommended for small gardens.

Flowering: Begins in early April. White, full, large, and fragrant flowers appear before the leaves develop.

Exposure: Southern, the best place for it is a sheltered, warm, and protected spot.

Care: Magnolia requires fertile, slightly acidic, nutrient-rich soil. Due to its relatively shallow root system, it should be planted not too deep in a substrate mixed with compost. Mulch with pine bark to a thickness of about 5 cm. It is recommended to fertilize it with special preparations for acid-loving plants. It does not tolerate drought well, so regular and fairly abundant watering is important. In winter, cover and mound young plants; older ones are fully frost-resistant.

Pruning: Does not like pruning. Only dry, dead stems can be removed.
