Sweetbay Magnolia is grown for its creamy-white, lemon-scented flowers in May and June and attractive silvery backs of its leaves. Depending on winter harshness, some or all leaves drop in late Fall and reappear in early Spring.
'Keltyk' is an improved selection of Sweetbay that is both more cold-hardy (for zone 5 and 6 planting with less leaf drop during the winter) and a more narrow growth habit than the species.
Unlike Southern magnolias, Sweetbays thrive in damp to even wet, soggy soil as well as ordinary garden soil.

Botanical Name
Magnolia virginiana 'Keltyk'
Rate of Growth
Keltyk' Sweetbay magnolia matures at about 20-25' tall by only 15' wide. Expect 1-2' of growth a year.
Where to Plant
Plant in all-day sun to quite heavy shade. Sweetbays thrive in wet areas of the garden as well as in ordinary garden soil.
