Michelia figo is a dense and multi-stemmed grower, with glossy, pale-green leaves that extend down to the ground. Small yellow and pink flowers are hidden among the leaves and release a fruity fragrance from late spring through summer. Michelia figo is ideal for hedging, can be pruned into any shape, or grown as a specimen tree. Michelia figo is correctly known as Magnolia figo, but the incorrect name has been retained for consistency with the New Zealand market. Magnolia figo is evergreen and native to China and probably originated in cultivation. Learn more about Magnolia figo.
