Common Name: Judy Magnolia
Magnolia ‘Judy’ is a deciduous shrub or small tree with a narrow upright to rounded habit, featuring green foliage and spring flowers in shades of pink to pink-purple with paler interiors. Information on this cultivar is a bit limited compared with more common magnolias, but available horticultural references describe it as a smaller flowering magnolia suited to sunny, well-drained sites. Type: Shrub / small tree Mature Size: 5–10' W × 10–15' H USDA Zones: 4a–8b Form: Narrow upright to rounded Light: Full sun Soil / Water: Well-drained, moist soils; moderate water Bloom Time / Length: Spring; moderate (about 2–3 weeks) Wildlife: Bees Features & Landscape Uses: Excellent for specimen planting, mixed shrub borders, and smaller gardens. Its upright habit and pink spring flowers make it useful where a narrower flowering magnolia is needed. Because published details on this cultivar are somewhat sparse, exact flower tone and mature habit may vary slightly by source and growing conditions. Care: Plant in full sun in well-drained soil with regular moisture during establishment. Avoid poorly drained sites, and prune only lightly after flowering if shaping is needed
