TREE AND SHRUBSLeaf it to me

Is there a flowering magnolia that can be kept cut down as a shrub?

such as “Little Gem Magnolia”?

A friend has Magnolia Stellata which they keep trimmed as a shrub – it’s really pretty with lots of star like white flowers in early and mid- spring. It’s fully hardy and doesn’t seem to mind what soil type but is deciduous as are most although not all Magnolias. Magnolias are spring flowering but sometimes they will flower again late summer/ early autumn and have white/pink flowers. If you are looking for evergreen shrubs not sure it’s right for you. Have you thought of Escallonias which have evergreen glossy leaves and come in red, white or pink flowers during the summer? I have a couple of Abelias which are supposed to be semi-evergreen but keep their leaves in my garden, with pretty pink and white fragrant flowers from early summer to late Autumn. Choisya could be good. Grevilla’s have red bracts on pine type leaves. Pyracanthas have frothy white blossom in the spring with bright orange, red or yellow berries in the Autumn which last until the birds eat them.
