Why Plant Gorgeous Magnolia?
Gorgeous Magnolia earns its name with every bloom. This hybrid magnolia delivers massive, richly colored flowers in shades of deep pink to purple, opening in early to mid-spring just as the landscape begins to stir. Unlike earlier-blooming magnolias, it tends to flower just after the danger of frost has passed, making it a more reliable show year after year. Strong growth, elegant form, and commanding size make Gorgeous a landscape focal point from its very first season. It’s a statement tree with grace and power.
How to use Gorgeous Magnolia in the landscape?
Plant Gorgeous Magnolia where it can shine as the centerpiece of a front yard, lawn island, or mixed border. It pairs beautifully with spring bulbs and understory trees like redbud or dogwood. Give it space to grow and plenty of sun for best bloom performance. Avoid windy or exposed sites where early blooms might be battered by the elements.
How Does Shipping Work?
Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box!

Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.
Shipping Delays:
From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
