Magnolia stellata Environment: bright, warm and protected
The ideal location is partially shaded and is in a sheltered location (protection from easterly winds). A sunny location can also be chosen. But there is a risk that the flowering time will be premature and the flowers will be damaged by late frost. A shady location has a low number of flowers.
In addition to the location and sufficient space, the Magnolia stellata needs a suitable soil for its roots. It tolerates heavy, weakly alkaline soils. The main thing is that they are moist. The following features are significant:
- humus
- angry
- permeable
- nutritious
