Felix Magnolia (Magnolia × ‘JURmag2’) delivers a showstopping early‑spring display, covering its upright, space‑saving framework with huge, hot‑pink, sweetly fragrant flowers—often counted by the hundreds on mature trees. With dependable cold hardiness, handsome light‑green foliage, and low maintenance needs, it’s a natural choice for small garden specimens, high‑impact entries, and four‑season foundation plantings in full sun and deep, moist, well‑drained soil.


Plant Description

Deciduous small tree with an upright, pyramidal form and attractive light‑green foliage. Bred for outsized floral impact on a compact frame that fits front yards and tight borders.

Flowers & Fragrance

Enormous (up to 12″) hot‑pink blooms with a rich perfume open on bare branches for a dramatic display; excellent for cutting and indoor enjoyment.

Bloom Time

Early spring, often before leaf‑out, with abundant flowering as the plant matures.

Sun Requirements

Full sun for the strongest flowering and best color (6+ hours of direct light daily).

Watering Needs

Water deeply and regularly during the first few seasons to establish; once established, water deeply when the soil begins to dry—avoid prolonged soggy conditions.

Soil Requirements

Provide deep, enriched, moist, well‑drained soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Mulch widely (keeping mulch off the trunk) to conserve moisture and protect roots.

Growth & Size

Moderate growth to roughly 16–22 ft. tall and 5–7 ft. wide at maturity; naturally upright outline minimizes pruning needs.

Hardiness

USDA Zones 5–9; in colder regions, shelter from harsh winter winds to protect buds.

Special Features

Easy‑care; showy, fragrant flowers; generally deer and rabbit resistant; outstanding as a spring focal point with strong summer foliage presence.

Landscape Uses

Signature specimen for front yards; anchor for mixed borders; dramatic allée or entry pair; superb backdrop for shade‑tolerant shrubs and spring bulbs.

Care Instructions

Plant at or slightly above grade in well‑drained soil. Water to establish, then irrigate during extended dry spells. Fertilize in early spring. Prune only after flowering to remove damaged or crossing wood and to preserve next year’s buds.

Breeding & Heritage

A New Zealand hybrid from Felix and Mark Jury, with notable parentage and award‑winning pedigree known for large flowers and garden performance.
