Magnolia virginiana ‘Northern Belle’
Northern Belle Sweetbay Magnolia
We first learned of this new cultivar at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden in NYC. They gave good reports of evergreen foliage, cold hardiness and an upright habit. Northern Bell is snowbird, quite happy to migrate south, and thrives in our Georgia nursery.
