The Sweetbay Magnolia is a graceful, semi-evergreen tree known for its creamy white, lemon-scented flowers and glossy, dark green leaves with silver undersides. Typically reaching 10-35 feet in height, it creates an elegant, upright form that’s perfect for adding beauty and fragrance to any garden.
