Little Gem Magnolia is a dwarf version of the classic Southern Magnolia, reaching about 15–20 feet tall and 7–10 feet wide with a narrow, upright habit. It features rich green, leathery leaves with velvety brown undersides and produces large, creamy white flowers throughout the summer. These blooms are not only showy but sweetly fragrant, adding a luxurious touch to patios, entryways, or courtyards. Its smaller size and evergreen nature make it ideal for formal hedging, privacy screening, or as a year-round focal point in compact yards. This Southern favorite brings elegance with surprisingly little upkeep.
