Teddy Bear® Southern Magnolia
Rising above the backwash of the Southern Magnolia cultivars, Teddy Bear® is distinguished by the cuddly clusters of fuzzy backed foliage. The unusually rounded leaves remind of, well, the cute little ears of a Teddy Bear. In Ed Gilman's Magnolia evaluation plot at University of Florida, many of the various cultivars seem to lose their moxy over time when left unpruned. Teddy Bear® stands out with colorful foliage tightly arranged on a compact frame.
