The Kay Parris Magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora 'Kay Parris') is a beautiful evergreen tree known for its large, fragrant flowers, glossy green foliage, and elegant form. This captivating tree is perfect for adding a touch of Southern charm to any landscape.
The Kay Parris Magnolia is a moderately fast-growing, medium-sized tree that typically reaches a height of 20-25 feet and a width of 10-15 feet. This cultivar is a more compact and versatile alternative to the traditional Southern Magnolia, making it suitable for smaller landscapes or use as a specimen tree. Hardy in USDA zones 6-9, the Kay Parris Magnolia thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining, acidic soil.
One of the many appealing aspects of the Kay Parris Magnolia is its low-maintenance nature. This tree requires minimal pruning, and any necessary shaping should be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. It is also relatively pest and disease-resistant, making it a reliable choice for gardens.
The Kay Parris Magnolia is renowned for its stunning, fragrant flowers. The tree produces large, creamy white blossoms that can reach up to 8 inches in diameter. These showy flowers appear in late spring and continue to bloom sporadically throughout the summer, filling the air with their sweet, lemony fragrance. The striking flowers attract pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, adding even more life and interest to your garden.
In addition to its beautiful flowers, the Kay Parris Magnolia also boasts attractive foliage that provides year-round interest. The tree's evergreen leaves are glossy, dark green on the upper surface and have a contrasting, rusty-brown, velvety underside. The foliage is dense and provides an excellent backdrop for the tree's large, fragrant blossoms.
