Magnolia Stellata Royal Star care
Plant in a sunny, partially shaded area of the garden sheltered from strong winds with moist, well drained soils where it will thrive. Requiring minimal pruning makes this a good low maintenance garden plant but also good for gardeners of any ability. Simply remove any dead or damaged branches in spring and apply a generous mulch to the base of the plant which will encourage a healthy, bushy growth in the upcoming seasons.
