Magnolia x 'Jane'
The Jane Magnolia is a hardy, compact deciduous shrub or small tree that produces showy, tulip-shaped blooms in deep pink to reddish-purple on the outside with soft white interiors. It typically flowers in mid to late spring, often later than other magnolia varieties, which helps protect the blooms from frost. Mature trees usually reach about 10–15 feet tall and wide, making them a great choice for smaller landscapes.

Planting and Care Tips
Plant
To plant a Jane Magnolia, choose a location with well-drained, slightly acidic soil and dig a hole about twice as wide as the root ball but no deeper. Set the tree at ground level, backfill with native soil mixed with compost, and water thoroughly.
Feed
Feed in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer formulated for acid-loving plants.
Water
Water regularly during the first few growing seasons to establish strong roots, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Once established, Jane Magnolias are moderately drought-tolerant but still benefit from consistent watering during dry spells.
Prune
Pruning is minimal; remove dead, crossing, or damaged branches right after flowering to maintain shape.
Exposure
Full sun, Partial sun
