Disappointed, the size is clearly smaller than advertised, packaging damaged with a few small broken branches. It will grow, I'm not worried, but the initial impression is poor.

Description
Magnolia stellata 'Rosea' is a small, deciduous bush. In early spring, it produces a mass of light pink, star-shaped, subtly fragrant flowers.
This 2 m (6.6 ft) tall star magnolia has a rounded, compact habit but is less branched than the species. From March to April, silky pink buds appear on the bare wood, which open up into star-shaped flowers. The flowers range from pale pink to white. The stamens are light yellow. Afterwards, it develops large deciduous, alternate, simple, ovate leaves, which are a medium green with a paler underside. In autumn, the foliage turns golden.
Originally from Japan, Magnolia stellata 'Rosea' can withstand temperatures as low as -25° C (-13° F), in moist, rich, well-drained, slightly acidic soil in a sunny or partially shaded position, and sheltered from prevailing winds. In summer, keep the soil moist by mulching with wood bark.
Due to its small size, Magnolia stellata 'Rosea' is ideal in a pot on a terrace where you can enjoy its pleasant fragrance.
Tip: The year following planting, spread slug pellets at the base as spring attacks are dangerous for young plants.

Planting and care
Magnolia stellata 'Rosea' should be planted in spring in well-drained, rich, moist, or even wet soil in summer. It prefers a soil with pH6. It prefers a sunny or semi-shaded location, sheltered from prevailing winds. Be careful not to break the fleshy roots and not to bury the root ball too deeply. Mulch and water in summer. The year following planting, spread anti-slug pellets at the base because spring attacks are dangerous for young plants. Beware of heavy frosts and hot, dry summers. Maintain good humidity by showering the foliage with a fine spray only in the evening. Pruning is unnecessary.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
