With so many different varieties - some growing as short as 10 ft. and others as tall as 50 ft. - you're sure to find something that fits your space without compromising on the classic magnolia look. Check out all of our magnolia varieties below:\nD.D. Blanchard Southern Magnolia\nD.D. Blanchard is the largest growing magnolia variety we stock. They’re tuned to our climate, resistant to common diseases, and perfectly fit the aesthetic of any southern landscape. Though most magnolias are deciduous, Southern magnolias tend to behave like evergreens. This means they’ll keep their leaves through most winters and only drop old leaves sparsely throughout the year. \nD.D. Blanchard will grow about 50 ft. tall with a spread of 35 ft. Showy, fragrant blooms appear from May to June.\nKay Parris Magnolia (Dwarf)\nKay Parris Magnolia can be thought of as a miniature version of the original cultivar, the southern magnolia. However, this smaller footprint did the opposite for its flowers; Large, extremely fragrant blooms are thought to be some of the best in the magnolia family. An added bonus, this is one of the few magnolias considered to be evergreen. \nGrows about 20 ft. tall with a spread of 10 ft.

The tree it grows on is fairly small, often reaching about 10-12 feet, and is known for its glossy, evergreen leaves and fragrant white blossoms. Distinguished from other satsumas, the Brown Select exhibits a hardy nature with enhanced cold tolerance, and its fruit typically ripens earlier, often ready for harvest from late fall.\nLouisiana Early Satsuma\nThe Louisiana Early Satsuma is a delightful variety of mandarin, distinguished by its medium-sized fruit with a bright, easy-to-peel skin and seedless, juicy, and sweet flesh, making it one of the earliest maturing and sweetest members of the satsuma family. The tree it grows on is relatively small, usually reaching about 8-10 feet, adorned with glossy green leaves and white, sweet-scented blossoms.

The tree it grows on usually attains a height of about 8-12 feet, characterized by its deep green, glossy leaves and fragrant white blossoms. Notably, the Miho Satsuma is distinguished by its early ripening season, often ready for harvest in early to mid-fall, ahead of many other satsuma varieties.\nSatsuma - Owari\nThe Owari Satsuma is a highly valued mandarin variety, renowned for its small to medium-sized, seedless fruits with a loose, easy-to-peel skin and a delightfully sweet, slightly tart flesh, making it a classic flavor benchmark within the satsuma family. The tree it grows on is compact, typically reaching about 6-8 feet, and is known for its dense canopy of glossy green leaves and aromatic white blossoms. Unique to the Owari Satsuma is its exceptional cold tolerance, allowing it to thrive in cooler climates where other satsuma varieties may struggle, and its fruit ripens in the late fall to early winter, providing a sweet treat when many other citrus fruits have finished their season.\nSatsuma - Seto\nThe Seto Satsuma is a cherished mandarin variety, notable for its medium-sized, seedless fruits with bright, easy-to-peel skin and a delightfully sweet, slightly tangy flesh, marking it as one of the more flavorful satsumas. The tree it grows on is moderately sized, often reaching about 10-12 feet, characterized by its glossy green leaves and fragrant white blossoms.

The tree it grows on is moderately large, often reaching about 15-20 feet, notable for its lush, dark green leaves and the production of highly fragrant blossoms. Unique among its tangelo kin, the Orlando Tangelo is recognized for its cold hardiness relative to other citrus and its mildly seedy nature, as well as the distinct collar or neck at the stem end of the fruit, setting it apart in appearance and taste.\nTangerine - Dancy\nThe Dancy Tangerine is a classic citrus variety, celebrated for its small to medium size, deep orange, easy-to-peel skin and a juicy, richly sweet and slightly tart flesh, offering a full-bodied flavor that sets a high standard among the tangerine family. The tree it grows on is moderately sized, typically reaching about 10-15 feet, characterized by its glossy green leaves and the production of intensely fragrant white blossoms. Unique to the Dancy Tangerine is its late-season ripening, often ready for harvest in late winter when few other citrus varieties are in season, and its tendency to bear a small number of seeds in each fruit, unlike many other seedless tangerine varieties.\nTangerine - Sunburst\nThe Sunburst Tangerine is a highly admired citrus variety, recognized for its medium-sized, vibrant orange, easy-to-peel skin and a juicy, incredibly sweet flesh, which is among the sweetest in the tangerine family. The tree it grows on is of medium size, often reaching 10-15 feet, notable for its shiny, dark green leaves and the clusters of sweet-smelling white blossoms it produces.

Flowering trees for color? Evergreen or deciduous for shade? Or maybe a fruit tree like lemon, lime, orange or satsuma? Ask one of our experts for advice and remember to check here before you begin.\n\n![Pro Tip](https:\/\/louisiananursery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Pro-Tip-266x300.png)Did you know fall and winter are the best seasons to plant a tree in Louisiana? This time period allows for the establishment of a good root system so it’s ready to grow during spring.\n\n## Flowering Trees\n![Close-up of a pink magnolia flower against a blurred background of blossoms.](https:\/\/louisiananursery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Magnolias.jpg)\n\n### Magnolia\nA tree of the South, the magnolia is fast growing and an all-around favorite in Louisiana. With so many different varieties - some growing as short as 10 ft. and others as tall as 50 ft. - you're sure to find something that fits your space without compromising on the classic magnolia look. Check out all of our magnolia varieties below:\n\n[D.D. Blanchard Southern Magnolia]()\n\nD.D. Blanchard is the largest growing magnolia variety we stock. They’re tuned to our climate, resistant to common diseases, and perfectly fit the aesthetic of any southern landscape. Though most magnolias are deciduous, Southern magnolias tend to behave like evergreens. This means they’ll keep their leaves through most winters and only drop old leaves sparsely throughout the year.\n\nD.D. Blanchard will grow about 50 ft. tall with a spread of 35 ft. Showy, fragrant blooms appear from May to June.\n\n[Kay Parris Magnolia (Dwarf)]()\n\nKay Parris Magnolia can be thought of as a miniature version of the original cultivar, the southern magnolia. However, this smaller footprint did the opposite for its flowers; Large, extremely fragrant blooms are thought to be some of the best in the magnolia family. An added bonus, this is one of the few magnolias considered to be evergreen.\n\nGrows about 20 ft. tall with a spread of 10 ft. Blooms from June – August.\n\n[Little Gem Magnolia (Dwarf)]()\n\nNot as small as Kay Parris, but has slightly smaller blooms. In this regard, Kay Parris could be seen as more ornamental than the Little Gem. However, Little Gem will usually bloom twice a year as compared to once, and is still very fragrant while having smaller flowers. Little gem is also considered evergreen, especially in Louisiana.\n\nGrows about 20-25 ft. tall, with a spread of 10-15 ft. Blooms in early summer and again in late summer \/ early fall.\n\n[Teddy Bear Magnolia (Dwarf)]()\n\nThe Teddy Bear is slightly smaller than the Little Gem, but its growth habit tends to be tighter. This means more branches and leaves in a more compact space. That growth habit makes it a dream to prune and shape, and works perfectly in smaller landscapes.\n\nGrows about 16-20 ft. tall, with spread of around 10-12 ft. Blooms profusely in late spring, many note the unique citrus-like fragrance.\n\n[Sweetbay Magnolia]()\n\nProbably the smallest magnolia you’ll see in the landscape, the sweet bay is unique for the color and shape of its leaf. Ditching the iconic green, wax-leafed with a brown underside, Sweetbay Magnolias have a silvery, almost frosted looking underside.\n\nGrows anywhere from 10-20 ft. tall and around. Sometimes comes in shrub form, but can be shaped and sold in topiary or tree form. Blooms May – June. Flowers are relatively large for its size.\n\n[Fuscata Magnolia (Banana Shrub, Extremely Fragrant)]()\n\nTechnically a magnolia, but commonly known as a banana shrub. This dense growing, relatively small shrub is famous for its banana scented fragrant flowers. You’ve likely been hit with this signature smell if you’ve ever walked around LSU or South Eastern campus, where they are peppered around just about anywhere with room.\n\nGrows about 6-8 ft. tall and around. Blooms heavily in the spring.\n\n![](https:\/\/louisiananursery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Magnolia-tree.jpg)\n\n### Japanese Magnolias\nSimilar to the magnolia tree, however, the Japanese magnolia is deciduous and drops its leaves in the winter, making its beautiful blooms stand out.\n\n[Alexandria Japanese Magnolia]()\n\nLarge, beautiful pink & purple flowers make this tree the center-piece of the landscape! Leaves fall in winter, blooms appear soon after.\n\nGrows about 20-25 ft. tall and spread of 15-20 ft.\n\n[Ann Japanese Magnolia]()\n\nLarge, purplish – red flowers that strongly resemble a tulip. Will usually bloom in mid-spring, but our warm climate often induces blooms as early as March or even February.\n\nGrows 8-10 ft. tall, with a spread of 10 ft.\n\n[Betty Japanese Magnolia]()\n\nLarge reddish – purple flowers with white interiors. Could be called a shrub or multi-trunk tree depending on your preference. Blooms appear later in season, about April – May.\n\nGrows from 10-15 ft. tall and around, adding to its shrub-like appearance.\n\n[Jane Japanese Magnolia]()\n\nJane Magnolia is one of the most popular Japanese magnolia selections. Has vibrant purple flowers that appear in late winter after leaves have fallen. Tried and tested, relatively easy to grow.\n\nGrows about 10-15 ft. tall with a spread 8-10 ft.\n\n![Bright red flowers cluster against a blue sky with green leaves surrounding them.](data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20width='1000'%20height='667'%20viewBox='0%200%201000%20667'%3E%3C\/svg%3E)\n\n### Crepe Myrtle\nCrepe Myrtles are so popular in Louisiana you'd think they were native!

Boilerpipe Text	Find The Perfect Tree at Louisiana Nursery Trees—the anchors of your landscaping. The backbone of your landscaping. Growing a tree from a barely-rooted sapling is an incredibly rewarding experience, and can be the longest-term project you’ll ever attempt in your landscape. While annuals are constantly replaced and perennials go dormant, your tree will be left standing tall regardless of the season. All that is to say we understand the great responsibility and trust you place in us to find healthy, ready to plant trees. Whether you’re looking for fruiting, flowering, ornamental, evergreen, or shade trees, Louisiana Nursery works with the best growers and handpicks only the healthiest stock for our stores. Contact Us Crepe Myrtle What will it be? Flowering trees for color? Evergreen or deciduous for shade? Or maybe a fruit tree like lemon, lime, orange or satsuma? Ask one of our experts for advice and remember to check here before you begin. Did you know fall and winter are the best seasons to plant a tree in Louisiana? This time period allows for the establishment of a good root system so it’s ready to grow during spring. Magnolia A tree of the South, the magnolia is fast growing and an all-around favorite in Louisiana. With so many different varieties - some growing as short as 10 ft. and others as tall as 50 ft. - you're sure to find something that fits your space without compromising on the classic magnolia look. Check out all of our magnolia varieties below: D.D. Blanchard Southern Magnolia D.D. Blanchard is the largest growing magnolia variety we stock. They’re tuned to our climate, resistant to common diseases, and perfectly fit the aesthetic of any southern landscape. Though most magnolias are deciduous, Southern magnolias tend to behave like evergreens. This means they’ll keep their leaves through most winters and only drop old leaves sparsely throughout the year. D.D. Blanchard will grow about 50 ft. tall with a spread of 35 ft. Showy, fragrant blooms appear from May to June. Kay Parris Magnolia (Dwarf) Kay Parris Magnolia can be thought of as a miniature version of the original cultivar, the southern magnolia. However, this smaller footprint did the opposite for its flowers; Large, extremely fragrant blooms are thought to be some of the best in the magnolia family. An added bonus, this is one of the few magnolias considered to be evergreen. Grows about 20 ft. tall with a spread of 10 ft. Blooms from June – August. Little Gem Magnolia (Dwarf) Not as small as Kay Parris, but has slightly smaller blooms. In this regard, Kay Parris could be seen as more ornamental than the Little Gem. However, Little Gem will usually bloom twice a year as compared to once, and is still very fragrant while having smaller flowers. Little gem is also considered evergreen, especially in Louisiana. Grows about 20-25 ft. tall, with a spread of 10-15 ft. Blooms in early summer and again in late summer / early fall. Teddy Bear Magnolia (Dwarf) The Teddy Bear is slightly smaller than the Little Gem, but its growth habit tends to be tighter. This means more branches and leaves in a more compact space. That growth habit makes it a dream to prune and shape, and works perfectly in smaller landscapes. Grows about 16-20 ft. tall, with spread of around 10-12 ft. Blooms profusely in late spring, many note the unique citrus-like fragrance. Sweetbay Magnolia Probably the smallest magnolia you’ll see in the landscape, the sweet bay is unique for the color and shape of its leaf. Ditching the iconic green, wax-leafed with a brown underside, Sweetbay Magnolias have a silvery, almost frosted looking underside. Grows anywhere from 10-20 ft. tall and around. Sometimes comes in shrub form, but can be shaped and sold in topiary or tree form. Blooms May – June. Flowers are relatively large for its size. Fuscata Magnolia (Banana Shrub, Extremely Fragrant) Technically a magnolia, but commonly known as a banana shrub. This dense growing, relatively small shrub is famous for its banana scented fragrant flowers. You’ve likely been hit with this signature smell if you’ve ever walked around LSU or South Eastern campus, where they are peppered around just about anywhere with room. Grows about 6-8 ft. tall and around. Blooms heavily in the spring. Japanese Magnolias Similar to the magnolia tree, however, the Japanese magnolia is deciduous and drops its leaves in the winter, making its beautiful blooms stand out. Alexandria Japanese Magnolia Large, beautiful pink & purple flowers make this tree the center-piece of the landscape! Leaves fall in winter, blooms appear soon after. Grows about 20-25 ft. tall and spread of 15-20 ft. Ann Japanese Magnolia Large, purplish – red flowers that strongly resemble a tulip. Will usually bloom in mid-spring, but our warm climate often induces blooms as early as March or even February. Grows 8-10 ft. tall, with a spread of 10 ft. Betty Japanese Magnolia Large reddish – purple flowers with white interiors. Could be called a shrub or multi-trunk tree depending on your preference. Blooms appear later in season, about April – May. Grows from 10-15 ft. tall and around, adding to its shrub-like appearance. Jane Japanese Magnolia Jane Magnolia is one of the most popular Japanese magnolia selections. Has vibrant purple flowers that appear in late winter after leaves have fallen.

Orange - Ponkin Mandarin The Ponkin Mandarin Orange is a small, globe-shaped citrus fruit that stands out for its easy-to-peel, bright orange skin and exceptionally sweet, almost honey-like flavor, distinguishing it as one of the sweetest members of the orange family. The tree it grows on is relatively compact, typically reaching 6-8 feet in height, and is renowned for its dense, deep green foliage and the production of highly aromatic blossoms. Unique to the Ponkin Mandarin is its notably small seeds and early ripening period, providing a welcome, sweet-tasting harvest at a time when many other mandarin varieties are not yet ripe. Orange - Red Navel The Red Navel Orange, often referred to as Cara Cara, is a unique citrus fruit known for its vibrant, pink-red flesh that offers a complex flavor profile, blending sweetness with a subtle hint of raspberry — a distinctive taste that sets it apart within the orange family. The tree it grows on is of medium size, typically reaching 10-15 feet in height, characterized by its glossy green leaves and the aromatic, white blossoms it produces. What makes the Red Navel Orange stand out is its higher levels of anthocyanins which give it the unique red color, as well as its lower acidity compared to other navel oranges, resulting in a sweeter, more nuanced flavor. Orange - Valencia The Valencia Orange is a popular citrus fruit, famed for its thin, bright orange skin and juicy, well-balanced sweet-tart flavor, which is considered one of the most refreshing among the orange varieties. The tree it grows on typically attains a height of 20-30 feet, characterized by its dense canopy of dark green leaves and fragrant white blossoms. Uniquely, the Valencia Orange is recognized for its late-season ripening, often holding onto the tree into the summer months, which distinguishes it from other oranges that typically ripen in winter or spring. This late ripening has earned it the nickname “summer orange.” Washington Navel Orange The Washington Navel Orange is a prized citrus variety, recognized for its medium to large size, easy-to-peel, vibrant orange skin, and seedless, sweet, and tangy flesh, offering a classic orange flavor that is often considered the standard among the orange family. The tree on which it grows usually reaches about 15-20 feet, characterized by its broad, dark green leaves and the sweet-scented white blossoms it produces. What sets the Washington Navel Orange apart is its distinctive “navel” at the base of the fruit — a secondary fruit embedded in the peel — a feature more pronounced and consistent in this variety than in other navel oranges. Satsuma - Brown Select The Brown Select Satsuma is a cherished variety of mandarin, noted for its small to medium size, deep orange skin that is loose and easy to peel, and seedless, incredibly sweet flesh, setting a high standard for sweetness among the satsuma family. The tree it grows on is fairly small, often reaching about 10-12 feet, and is known for its glossy, evergreen leaves and fragrant white blossoms. Distinguished from other satsumas, the Brown Select exhibits a hardy nature with enhanced cold tolerance, and its fruit typically ripens earlier, often ready for harvest from late fall. Louisiana Early Satsuma The Louisiana Early Satsuma is a delightful variety of mandarin, distinguished by its medium-sized fruit with a bright, easy-to-peel skin and seedless, juicy, and sweet flesh, making it one of the earliest maturing and sweetest members of the satsuma family. The tree it grows on is relatively small, usually reaching about 8-10 feet, adorned with glossy green leaves and white, sweet-scented blossoms. What sets the LA Early Satsuma apart is its early ripening, with fruits typically ready for harvest as early as late summer or early fall, significantly earlier than many other satsuma varieties. Satsuma - Miho The Miho Satsuma is a popular mandarin variety, appreciated for its medium-sized, seedless fruits with a vibrant, easy-to-peel skin and a supremely sweet, tangy flesh, placing it among the sweetest in the satsuma family. The tree it grows on usually attains a height of about 8-12 feet, characterized by its deep green, glossy leaves and fragrant white blossoms. Notably, the Miho Satsuma is distinguished by its early ripening season, often ready for harvest in early to mid-fall, ahead of many other satsuma varieties. Satsuma - Owari The Owari Satsuma is a highly valued mandarin variety, renowned for its small to medium-sized, seedless fruits with a loose, easy-to-peel skin and a delightfully sweet, slightly tart flesh, making it a classic flavor benchmark within the satsuma family. The tree it grows on is compact, typically reaching about 6-8 feet, and is known for its dense canopy of glossy green leaves and aromatic white blossoms. Unique to the Owari Satsuma is its exceptional cold tolerance, allowing it to thrive in cooler climates where other satsuma varieties may struggle, and its fruit ripens in the late fall to early winter, providing a sweet treat when many other citrus fruits have finished their season. Satsuma - Seto The Seto Satsuma is a cherished mandarin variety, notable for its medium-sized, seedless fruits with bright, easy-to-peel skin and a delightfully sweet, slightly tangy flesh, marking it as one of the more flavorful satsumas. The tree it grows on is moderately sized, often reaching about 10-12 feet, characterized by its glossy green leaves and fragrant white blossoms. What sets the Seto Satsuma apart is its early ripening season, with fruits typically ready for harvest in early to mid-fall, ahead of many other satsuma varieties, and its fruit is known for holding well on the tree, allowing for an extended harvesting period. Tangelo - Orlando The Orlando Tangelo is an enticing citrus hybrid, renowned for its medium to large size, slightly pear-shaped fruit with a deep orange, slightly pebbled skin and a juicy, richly sweet-tart flesh that offers a more complex flavor compared to traditional tangerines or oranges. The tree it grows on is moderately large, often reaching about 15-20 feet, notable for its lush, dark green leaves and the production of highly fragrant blossoms. Unique among its tangelo kin, the Orlando Tangelo is recognized for its cold hardiness relative to other citrus and its mildly seedy nature, as well as the distinct collar or neck at the stem end of the fruit, setting it apart in appearance and taste. Tangerine - Dancy The Dancy Tangerine is a classic citrus variety, celebrated for its small to medium size, deep orange, easy-to-peel skin and a juicy, richly sweet and slightly tart flesh, offering a full-bodied flavor that sets a high standard among the tangerine family. The tree it grows on is moderately sized, typically reaching about 10-15 feet, characterized by its glossy green leaves and the production of intensely fragrant white blossoms. Unique to the Dancy Tangerine is its late-season ripening, often ready for harvest in late winter when few other citrus varieties are in season, and its tendency to bear a small number of seeds in each fruit, unlike many other seedless tangerine varieties. Tangerine - Sunburst The Sunburst Tangerine is a highly admired citrus variety, recognized for its medium-sized, vibrant orange, easy-to-peel skin and a juicy, incredibly sweet flesh, which is among the sweetest in the tangerine family. The tree it grows on is of medium size, often reaching 10-15 feet, notable for its shiny, dark green leaves and the clusters of sweet-smelling white blossoms it produces. Distinguishing the Sunburst Tangerine from other tangerines is its early to mid-season ripening, typically ready for harvest in early winter, and its virtually seedless nature, making it a convenient and delectable choice for fresh eating.

Growing a tree from a barely-rooted sapling is an incredibly rewarding experience, and can be the longest-term project you’ll ever attempt in your landscape. While [annuals](https://louisiananursery.com/annuals-perennials/) are constantly replaced and [perennials](https://louisiananursery.com/annuals-perennials/) go dormant, your tree will be left standing tall regardless of the season. All that is to say we understand the great responsibility and trust you place in us to find healthy, ready to plant trees. Whether you’re looking for fruiting, flowering, ornamental, evergreen, or shade trees, [Louisiana Nursery](https://louisiananursery.com/) works with the best growers and handpicks only the healthiest stock for our stores. [Contact Us](https://louisiananursery.com/contact/) ![Bright red flowers cluster against a blue sky with green leaves surrounding them.](https://louisiananursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Crepe-Myrtle-Tree-e1675711000230-1024x768.jpg) Crepe Myrtle What will it be? Flowering trees for color? Evergreen or deciduous for shade? Or maybe a fruit tree like lemon, lime, orange or satsuma? Ask one of our experts for advice and remember to check here before you begin. ![Pro Tip](https://louisiananursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Pro-Tip-266x300.png)Did you know fall and winter are the best seasons to plant a tree in Louisiana? This time period allows for the establishment of a good root system so it’s ready to grow during spring. ## Flowering Trees ![Close-up of a pink magnolia flower against a blurred background of blossoms.](https://louisiananursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Magnolias.jpg) ### Magnolia A tree of the South, the magnolia is fast growing and an all-around favorite in Louisiana. With so many different varieties - some growing as short as 10 ft. and others as tall as 50 ft. - you're sure to find something that fits your space without compromising on the classic magnolia look. Check out all of our magnolia varieties below: [D.D. Blanchard Southern Magnolia]() D.D. Blanchard is the largest growing magnolia variety we stock. They’re tuned to our climate, resistant to common diseases, and perfectly fit the aesthetic of any southern landscape. Though most magnolias are deciduous, Southern magnolias tend to behave like evergreens. This means they’ll keep their leaves through most winters and only drop old leaves sparsely throughout the year. D.D. Blanchard will grow about 50 ft. tall with a spread of 35 ft. Showy, fragrant blooms appear from May to June. [Kay Parris Magnolia (Dwarf)]() Kay Parris Magnolia can be thought of as a miniature version of the original cultivar, the southern magnolia. However, this smaller footprint did the opposite for its flowers; Large, extremely fragrant blooms are thought to be some of the best in the magnolia family. An added bonus, this is one of the few magnolias considered to be evergreen. Grows about 20 ft. tall with a spread of 10 ft. Blooms from June – August. [Little Gem Magnolia (Dwarf)]() Not as small as Kay Parris, but has slightly smaller blooms. In this regard, Kay Parris could be seen as more ornamental than the Little Gem. However, Little Gem will usually bloom twice a year as compared to once, and is still very fragrant while having smaller flowers. Little gem is also considered evergreen, especially in Louisiana. Grows about 20-25 ft. tall, with a spread of 10-15 ft. Blooms in early summer and again in late summer / early fall. [Teddy Bear Magnolia (Dwarf)]() The Teddy Bear is slightly smaller than the Little Gem, but its growth habit tends to be tighter. This means more branches and leaves in a more compact space. That growth habit makes it a dream to prune and shape, and works perfectly in smaller landscapes. Grows about 16-20 ft. tall, with spread of around 10-12 ft. Blooms profusely in late spring, many note the unique citrus-like fragrance. [Sweetbay Magnolia]() Probably the smallest magnolia you’ll see in the landscape, the sweet bay is unique for the color and shape of its leaf. Ditching the iconic green, wax-leafed with a brown underside, Sweetbay Magnolias have a silvery, almost frosted looking underside. Grows anywhere from 10-20 ft. tall and around. Sometimes comes in shrub form, but can be shaped and sold in topiary or tree form. Blooms May – June. Flowers are relatively large for its size. [Fuscata Magnolia (Banana Shrub, Extremely Fragrant)]() Technically a magnolia, but commonly known as a banana shrub. This dense growing, relatively small shrub is famous for its banana scented fragrant flowers. You’ve likely been hit with this signature smell if you’ve ever walked around LSU or South Eastern campus, where they are peppered around just about anywhere with room. Grows about 6-8 ft. tall and around. Blooms heavily in the spring. ![](https://louisiananursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Magnolia-tree.jpg) ### Japanese Magnolias Similar to the magnolia tree, however, the Japanese magnolia is deciduous and drops its leaves in the winter, making its beautiful blooms stand out. [Alexandria Japanese Magnolia]() Large, beautiful pink & purple flowers make this tree the center-piece of the landscape! Leaves fall in winter, blooms appear soon after. Grows about 20-25 ft. tall and spread of 15-20 ft. [Ann Japanese Magnolia]() Large, purplish – red flowers that strongly resemble a tulip. Will usually bloom in mid-spring, but our warm climate often induces blooms as early as March or even February. Grows 8-10 ft. tall, with a spread of 10 ft. [Betty Japanese Magnolia]() Large reddish – purple flowers with white interiors. Could be called a shrub or multi-trunk tree depending on your preference. Blooms appear later in season, about April – May. Grows from 10-15 ft. tall and around, adding to its shrub-like appearance. [Jane Japanese Magnolia]() Jane Magnolia is one of the most popular Japanese magnolia selections. Has vibrant purple flowers that appear in late winter after leaves have fallen. Tried and tested, relatively easy to grow. Grows about 10-15 ft. tall with a spread 8-10 ft. ![Bright red flowers cluster against a blue sky with green leaves surrounding them.](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='1000'%20height='667'%20viewBox='0%200%201000%20667'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ### Crepe Myrtle Crepe Myrtles are so popular in Louisiana you'd think they were native! The varieties available in our stores have acclimated to our climate, are resistant to our diseases and pests, and can fill any space from big to small with an array of colorful flowers and foliage.

Almost any park, nature-walk, or college campus in Louisiana is bound to have a few of these majestic trees giving shade and usually a place to sit. Here are just a few of the varieties we stock: [Southern Live Oak]() Distinct in that it doesn’t lose leaves nor change color in the fall. Will briefly shed leaves in early spring. Often called Southern Oak or Live Oak. The largest Southern Live Oaks have been recorded with a crown of 150-ft. However, the average tends to be a bit more reasonable. Grows about 40-80 ft. tall with a 60-100 ft. spread, perfect for providing shade. [Empire Live Oak]() Faster growing than the live oak, Empire oaks have denser branching habits that end up being easier to maintain in certain scenarios. Only shed leaves briefly in the spring with no winter color-change. Grows about 40-80 ft. tall, spread of 60-100 ft. [Nuttall Oak]() A deciduous variety of oak with large leaves that will change from green – yellow – orange – red in the fall until dropping them in the winter. Smaller spread, great for smaller spaces. Grows about 40-60 ft. tall, spread of 35-50 ft. [Shumard Oak]() A more rounded growth-habit than other oaks, the Shumard is fast-growing and best known for its vibrant color changing leaves as it moves from fall to winter. Many see this as a counter-part to the Nuttall, with the Shumard preferring higher spots in the landscape and Nuttall preferring lower. Grows about 60 ft. tall and spread of 50-60 ft.

With so many different varieties - some growing as short as 10 ft. and others as tall as 50 ft. - you're sure to find something that fits your space without compromising on the classic magnolia look. Check out all of our magnolia varieties below: [D.D. Blanchard Southern Magnolia]() D.D. Blanchard is the largest growing magnolia variety we stock. They’re tuned to our climate, resistant to common diseases, and perfectly fit the aesthetic of any southern landscape. Though most magnolias are deciduous, Southern magnolias tend to behave like evergreens. This means they’ll keep their leaves through most winters and only drop old leaves sparsely throughout the year. D.D. Blanchard will grow about 50 ft. tall with a spread of 35 ft. Showy, fragrant blooms appear from May to June. [Kay Parris Magnolia (Dwarf)]() Kay Parris Magnolia can be thought of as a miniature version of the original cultivar, the southern magnolia. However, this smaller footprint did the opposite for its flowers; Large, extremely fragrant blooms are thought to be some of the best in the magnolia family. An added bonus, this is one of the few magnolias considered to be evergreen. Grows about 20 ft. tall with a spread of 10 ft. Blooms from June – August. [Little Gem Magnolia (Dwarf)]() Not as small as Kay Parris, but has slightly smaller blooms. In this regard, Kay Parris could be seen as more ornamental than the Little Gem. However, Little Gem will usually bloom twice a year as compared to once, and is still very fragrant while having smaller flowers. Little gem is also considered evergreen, especially in Louisiana. Grows about 20-25 ft. tall, with a spread of 10-15 ft. Blooms in early summer and again in late summer / early fall. [Teddy Bear Magnolia (Dwarf)]() The Teddy Bear is slightly smaller than the Little Gem, but its growth habit tends to be tighter. This means more branches and leaves in a more compact space. That growth habit makes it a dream to prune and shape, and works perfectly in smaller landscapes. Grows about 16-20 ft. tall, with spread of around 10-12 ft. Blooms profusely in late spring, many note the unique citrus-like fragrance. [Sweetbay Magnolia]() Probably the smallest magnolia you’ll see in the landscape, the sweet bay is unique for the color and shape of its leaf. Ditching the iconic green, wax-leafed with a brown underside, Sweetbay Magnolias have a silvery, almost frosted looking underside. Grows anywhere from 10-20 ft. tall and around. Sometimes comes in shrub form, but can be shaped and sold in topiary or tree form. Blooms May – June. Flowers are relatively large for its size. [Fuscata Magnolia (Banana Shrub, Extremely Fragrant)]() Technically a magnolia, but commonly known as a banana shrub. This dense growing, relatively small shrub is famous for its banana scented fragrant flowers. You’ve likely been hit with this signature smell if you’ve ever walked around LSU or South Eastern campus, where they are peppered around just about anywhere with room. Grows about 6-8 ft. tall and around. Blooms heavily in the spring. ![](https://louisiananursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Magnolia-tree.jpg) ### Japanese Magnolias Similar to the magnolia tree, however, the Japanese magnolia is deciduous and drops its leaves in the winter, making its beautiful blooms stand out. [Alexandria Japanese Magnolia]() Large, beautiful pink & purple flowers make this tree the center-piece of the landscape! Leaves fall in winter, blooms appear soon after. Grows about 20-25 ft. tall and spread of 15-20 ft. [Ann Japanese Magnolia]() Large, purplish – red flowers that strongly resemble a tulip. Will usually bloom in mid-spring, but our warm climate often induces blooms as early as March or even February. Grows 8-10 ft. tall, with a spread of 10 ft. [Betty Japanese Magnolia]() Large reddish – purple flowers with white interiors. Could be called a shrub or multi-trunk tree depending on your preference. Blooms appear later in season, about April – May. Grows from 10-15 ft. tall and around, adding to its shrub-like appearance.
