Teddy Bear Magnolia Trees for Sale Online
The Teddy Bear Magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora 'Southern Charm') is a very compact, upright grower that produces large fragrant white flowers in the early summer that are accented by its glossy, dark green foliage.
The lustrous green leaves of the Magnolia Teddy Bear boast reddish-brown undersides and are beautiful both on the tree and dried for arrangements. These high-end evergreen trees grow best in full sun and planted in a well-drained soil blend. The Teddy Bear yields the best growth in hardiness zones 7-9, which is the majority of the western and southern parts of the US. This is how the tree gained its nickname "Teddy Bear Southern Charm."
The Teddy Bear Magnolia is quite similar to the Little Gem Magnolia, however they do have their differences. The Southern Charm Magnolias are more compact trees with smaller canopies. Moreover, this Magnolia cultivar produces sturdier more vertical branches. Also, while many strains of Magnolia are known to reach incredible heights, the Teddy grows to a max height of about 20 feet tall.
If you're looking for that classic Southern Magnolia look, without taking up too much square footage, this smaller tree is perfect for you!
