Description
‘D.D. Blanchard’ is a magnificent evergreen Southern Magnolia with large dark green leaves and rusty undersides on an upright, pyramidal form. It has the ability to maintain a straight central trunk that allows it to be grown full to the ground or be pruned into tree form with a visible trunk. All grown up D. D. Blanchard can reach a height of up to 75 feet tall and 30 feet wide but is usually seen at 50 feet or lower at maturity. Very large and highly fragrant cup-shaped flowers of 8 inches in diameter will fill the garden with lemony-sweet aroma during summer.
If you don’t have room for a large grow such as ‘D. D. Blanchard’ check out its smaller, half-sized cousins the ‘Little Gem’ Magnolia or ‘Teddy Bear’ Magnolia.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing in an upright pyramidal form 50 feet or more in height and 20 to 30 feet wide, the D. D. Blanchard Magnolia is ideal for use as a focal point specimen, in groupings, or in tall privacy screen plantings. Also useful to frame the corners of tall homes and other buildings. A fine addition to fragrance gardens, white theme gardens, bird and wildlife gardens, and cut flower and cottage gardens.
Spacing: 15 feet apart for privacy screens; 35 feet or more apart for space between trees

Growing Preferences
D. D. Blanchard Magnolia is very easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average or better fertility, preferring one that is rich in organic matter. Grows well in full sun or part shade. At least 4 hours of direct sunlight or all-day filtered sun is suggested.

The little tree was expertly packed and arrived healthy and happy in its box. It was larger and more lush than I expected. All instructions were easy to understand. We planted it two weeks ago and it looks very happy in its new spot! Assuming it survives the winter and continues to thrive, I would definitely consider ordering from this nursery again!——————————————————-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
