This deciduous magnolia features beautiful purple blooms that appear in early spring before the foliage emerges, creating a striking display. This small tree is known for its compact size, making it perfect for urban landscapes and smaller gardens. The Jane Magnolia is hardy in zones 4-8 and reaches a mature height of 10-15 feet with a spread of 8-12 feet. It prefers full sun to partial shade and is heat and drought tolerant once established.
