Description

Love the evergreen Southern Magnolias but don’t have the room for a 50 feet tree? Unlike its larger cousins, ‘Teddy Bear’ is the best of the dwarfs in the family; maturing to a height of only 20-25 feet and a width of about 10-14 feet, which makes it a good fit when there’s limited space to work with.

There are several other differences between Teddy Bear Magnolia and its larger cousins. Teddy Bear is much more compact and dense than other Southern Magnolia varieties. Its upright narrower form is densely covered with thicker and darker green oval-shaped leaves that are glossy on top with fuzzy orange-bronze undersides. The lateral branches grow more upward and much stronger than other varieties and the blooming period is much longer; flowering May through October. The beautiful and fragrant white flowers are 8 inches across and fill the the garden with the delightful, lemon-scented aroma we love from southern magnolias. A truly magnificent specimen in the landscape!

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 20 to 25 feet tall and 10 to 14 feet wide, Teddy Bear Magnolia is ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, in evergreen privacy screen plantings, or as a corner plant or espalier (trained to grow flat against a window) in home foundation plantings. Can also be grown in large pots, planters and other containers of 18 inches or more in rim diameter. A fine addition to fragrance gardens, white theme gardens, bird, wildlife, cut flower and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 7 to 8 feet apart for privacy screens; 16 feet or more apart for space between trees

Growing Preferences

Teddy Bear Magnolia is very easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil of average fertility, preferring a soil that is rich in organic matter. It grows well in full sun or part shade. At least 4 hours of direct sunlight or all-day filtered sun is suggested.

My teddy bear magnolia got to me super quick, and was in pristine condition! Wilson Bro’s have developed their own boxed, to ensure your plants arrive in great shape, which I super appreciate. Can’t wait for my tree to grow :)———————————————————————-Thanks for the photo and the kind words and wonderful review!

We ordered a 3 foot Teddy Bear Southern Magnolia from Wilson Bros, We were a little concerned about ordering plants on-line, having never done so before, but the package arrived somewhat earlier than was initially promised. The packing was impeccable, very solidly put together – I was concerned that there was no “this end up” on the box, but the way it was packed meant that it really wasn’t necessary. The tree itself was in great shape, there was maybe one leaf that was dead, and it’s now planted and seems to be doing well. Early days and all that, but at this point if Teddy doesn’t flourish, it’s on us and not the vendor.————————————————Thanks for the kind words and wonderful review!

Would definitely recommend the tree and Wilson Bros.—————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy your purchase for years to come!

I fell in love with some Magnolias I saw as I was driving to my house. I’m unaware if they were Teddy Magnolias but they were a lot fuller, though much smaller than Magnolia’s I had usually seen. I ran across Teddy Magnolia’s on this site and ended up buying 2. Both have done so well! I a very pleased with my purchase and so happy to have tried out.. They have been in ground for 8 & 6 months respectively; both thriving with new growth. For reference, I purchased both heights of 7 gallon.————————————————-Thanks for the photos.

The tree arrived very well packaged and with great instructions on how to safely it get out of the box and how to plant. The Teddy Bear is in the ground and is already sprouting brand new deep green leaves. Fast seamless delivery, great nursery.——————————————————Thanks for the kind words and wonderful review!

Having always been disappointed with mail order plants I never the less ordered the teddy bear magnolia because of local unavailability.
When I received the package I was dumbfounded when I opened the carton because the plant was so lush and dense I thought perhaps I had mistakenly received an artificial tree. Nope it was real and gorgeous. Exceeded my expectations. So now I can order with confidence from Wilson Brothers.——————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come!

This tree had been unavailable locally and online for some time. I was on a wait list with Wilson Bros Gardens and I appreciated the notification when they were back in stock.
Wilson Bros has exceptional customer service and will reply promptly to your emails.
Arrived in fantastic condition and packaged so carefully. 7-gallon (4-5′ tall) was a nice option to the 6-8″ trees I had been looking at locally and that were priced twice as much. Plus I would have had to rent a truck to get them home. Free shipping from Wilson Bros Gardens made it an easy decision. I appreciate all of the planting and care instructions that Wilson Bros Gardens makes available online. You’re set up for success buying from here.———————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
