Magnolia stellata Two Stones | Magnolia stellata Family: Magnoliaceae Star Magnolia Origin: Japan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Very slow growing, star magnolia is usually seen in home landscapes as a medium sized shrub. In autumn the leaves turn yellow to bronze before falling. It is striking in late winter or early spring when it appears smothered in brilliant white flowers as it blooms before the leaves appear. Star magnolia likes deep, organic, acid soil. Propagation: It is fairly easy to root cuttings taken after the flower buds have formed in early to mid summer. Treat with rooting hormone to insure success. Seeds may be used, but they need special handling and are slow to germinate. See Article about Tropical Magnolias.
