Magnolia stellata is a small ornamental magnolia grown for its early spring flowers. Before the leaves emerge, white blooms open from rounded buds, providing seasonal interest at a time when few other shrubs are in flower. The plant develops a compact, rounded outline over time and is well suited to gardens where space is limited. Best results are achieved in moist, free-draining soil and a sheltered position.
