Magnolia x loebneri 'Merrill' is a vigorous small tree with large, white and sweetly scented blooms in spring. These flowers, which are goblet-shaped at first, become star-shaped as they open up. The flowers open on to bare branches in spring, contrasting with the delicate brown branches, which creates a lovely effect. This deciduous tree features oblong leaves which retain a green colour throughout spring, summer and autumn. This Magnolia is best placed in an area close to where people can fully appreciate the scented flowers.
