As the common name suggests, the 'Little Gem' is a more compact variety of magnolia - yet the smaller size does not result in a compromise of its features. One of the most notable characteristics of this tree has to be the pure-white, cup-shaped flowers that appear in late summer. The flowers are fragrant and sit amongst the large and glossy dark green leaves. The leaves have rusty bronzed undersides and as this is an evergreen variety they hold on the tree all year round. This is a great choice for planting in a smaller garden and will be sure to attract a whole host of wildlife to your outdoor space too.
