Commonly Asked Questions
How far apart do I plant Kay Parris for a screening hedge? For an effective screen, plant 1–1.5m apart. This spacing allows each tree room to grow while creating a dense, attractive hedge. Adequate space also encourages healthy growth, good airflow, and balanced sunlight exposure for a lush, long-lasting screen.
When does Kay Parris flower? The 'Kay Parris' magnolia, a hybrid of Magnolia grandiflora, typically blooms in late spring to early summer, usually around May to June in many regions. Its large, creamy-white flowers are quite show with a subtle fragrance. The exact timing of flowering can vary slightly based on local climate conditions and the specific growing environment.
How do I keep my Kay Parris looking healthy? Ensure Kay Parris is well watered, especially during the warmer months. A layer of mulch will help retain the moisture in the soil. A quality fertiliser will also increase the health of your plant.
