White champaca - these grafted plants start blooming right away! The white flowers of this variety have more delicate fragrance than regular Golden Champaca, and the more slow-growing and compact tree is better suited for pot growing.
Magnolia alba, also known as White Champaka, is a rare and highly fragrant hybrid perfume tree with creamy white blooms that release a sweet, fruity bubble gum scent - just like its parent, the Golden Champaka. Unlike Golden Champaka, which takes years to flower from seed, Magnolia alba is a sterile hybrid propagated by grafting or air-layering, allowing it to bloom early, even when still small. The white flowers have a more delicate fragrance compared to the richer scent of the yellow Champaka, and Alba is also a more reliable bloomer. However, it is less cold tolerant than its golden counterpart. With its compact, upright growth and slower pace, Magnolia alba is perfect for containers or smaller landscapes - yet still offers the luxurious fragrance that has made Champakas world famous. A must-have for collectors and perfume tree enthusiasts alike.
