My wife and I want to purchase a Little Gem Magnolia tree
for our home. I've seen these for sale at local nurseries
but they were pretty expensive. Does anybody know of a
wholesale nursery that we can get one at a cheaper price?

Thanks, Daniel

I discovered that McLamb's Nursery in Angier sells these
trees. You have to call and order one and then they'll
dig it out of the field and ball/burlap it for you. Does
anyone here have any experience with their trees?

Thanks, Daniel

My Little Gem blooms from summer into November. They need a lot of sun
to bloom and remain full. Mine was in a bit too much shade until we
took down a big oak. Any of your local nurseries should carry them. A
well grown tree may cost more but may be worthwhile considering how slow
they grow.

How large has yours gotten? From what I've read they grow
about a foot a year and do bloom almost year round. We're
looking forward to planting ours.

Definitely not a foot a year. I will be interested to see how this year
goes however as it will get a lot more sun. A foot a year may be true
for early growth but they slow down as they mature. It is really a
pretty new cultivar so I don't know that mature specimens even exist.
