Why Plant Victoria Southern Magnolia?
Victoria Southern Magnolia is the definition of evergreen elegance. It brings thick, glossy leaves that stay rich and green all year, plus those iconic, creamy-white blooms that look like they belong on a magazine cover. The flowers are large, fragrant, and unforgettable, the kind of bloom that makes you slow down in the driveway just to take it in for a second.
Even when it’s not blooming, it’s doing the heavy lifting: providing privacy, anchoring the landscape with strong structure, and adding texture with the warm brown undersides of the leaves. It’s classic, it’s confident, and it makes a home feel established in a way few trees can.
How to use Victoria Southern Magnolia in the landscape?
Plant it as a specimen tree where its evergreen canopy and summer blooms can be enjoyed from a porch, patio, or main window. It’s also an excellent privacy and screening tree, especially when planted in a staggered grouping to soften property lines and create a lush, enclosed feel around outdoor living spaces. In foundation plantings, use it to anchor a corner of the home and provide year-round structure, then layer in lower shrubs and perennials that won’t compete with its bold foliage. Give it room away from tight walkways and allow space for the mature canopy so the tree can develop a clean, natural silhouette.
How Does Shipping Work?

*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.
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!
