- 🌳Teddy Bear® Southern Magnolia / Fragrant Evergreen Native - In this video I cover Teddy Bear® Southern Magnolias. It is a narrow upright growing cultivar that maintains the beautiful foliage and flowers of larger growing cultivars. I had previously covered Little Gem Magnolia which is also a great variety, but Teddy Bear is definitely more showy. This is the first time that I have ever shot footage somewhere and then brought it together in a video like this. Let me know in the comments if it is ok?

There is some blower noise in the background of this video. I am definitely finding it hard in an urban space to find quiet moments. There is going to be a Plantbymail giveaway tomorrow as part of the Subscriber Sunday video. Thanks for watching

I didn’t even notice the noise. Great info, as always! Thanks!
HortTube with Jim Putnam do you sell the seed pods?
I planted Teddy Bear and Little Gem on my property this year. I'm in 6B and so excited to see them grow.
Wowww so huge. Seen amazing.
I like seeing the plant growing in the landscape. ❤
Hello! I found your video because I I was given 3 little cuttings of grandiflora or teddy bear and I hope to root them. I believe they were all considered “suckers” if that means anything. I’ve got quite a bit of stem and leaves to work with on 1 so I may even turn it into 2 cuttings. I’ve read to not keep much stem, cut 1inch vertical line, clip most leaves in half (not sure why?) and put direct in soil. Would you agree or anything you can add? Root hormone recommendation? I’ve heard the success rate for this is 50% at best, and I don’t know if I’ll ever have this chance again so I want to give it my best💛 my heart is in the southeast and this beautiful tree is a great reminder of things that feel like home to me. I hope to do it justice growing here in Phoenix AZ! Thank you so much for your time :) Krissy
Teddy bears are my favorite out of the evergreen Magnolias. They’re the smallest variety and have the biggest and lightest shade of green leaves. They look great planted together and the flower I hear is dinner plate sized. They plant these a lot in Australia. Just got one this past spring at only about 2ft by 2ft grew about a foot hoping it doesn’t get to hurt by this years winter.
Winters not gonna hurt it. If it was Arizona HEAT then it might not make it. . . But it PREFERS the cooling temps!
@@FrostyTheSnowman12321 they say they aren’t zoned for I think 6b and lower. But mine have been fine except one problem I noticed is when we got a lot of snow it can weigh down the branches it bent mine pretty good but they made it
I think I have one of those Teddy Bears in my yard. It’s smaller and fuller than the others. Have about 15 total and my plan this winter is to thin them out a little. The leaves and seed pods drive me crazy. Each tree drops about 30-40 of them each year. Good video Jim.
Tyre Hester can I buy some of the seed pods from you when you thin them :) I’m trying to grow a few trees!
Teddy Bear worth planting .
I’ve watched this multiple times. Great info and up close footage capturing all of the tree.
I was looking for a hedge this fall. I looked into different trees including the 3 parts video you have on tree hedges. I decided to go with teddy bear. It might take some time for them to grow, but I think is gonna worth it.
How tall do they get?
Appreciate this video, Jim! Not to much information on how big this new variety gets, this video nailed it!
Would love to depend on the Teddy Bear here in central Oklahoma. Still, our extremes in cold and hot make it difficult on the Teddy Bear. Little Gem seems to take our temperature extremes much better.
We had one in Florida. The reason the leaf drop was annoying for me was because the leaves collected rain water. And if you don’t clean them up they become a breeding ground for mosquitoes! It wasn’t a one and done leaf drop.
We love this magnolia and we use it in our Christmas containers, but living in zone three we can’t grow it, but I can dream about it!!
Thank you for sharing. 👍
I like the use of video from JC Raulston (Other than it’s my old stomping grounds and I miss being able to drop in). I think it helps a lot to see growth habit and mature sizes which can be hard to picture when looking at plants in nursery containers.
I don't have one but I think they are beautiful trees
So I read that Little gem can take some shade but Teddys need more full sun is this true?
Thanks for this Video Jim! what is the tree in the background @2:44 to the right of the large magnolia - large green tree with red berries ? thanks.
Thanks for this video Jim!!
Thanks you for watching
HortTube with Jim Putnam always a pleasure to watch.
Love the Teddy Bear and Little Gem. Have one on the NE corner of the house and was looking forward to the growth...but I’m concerned long-term about roots and proximity to gas/irrigation lines. Any thoughts on what I might swap it with? Would prefer a tree...but not sure any tree wouldn’t present the same issues. May need to cluster shrubs. Zone 7b.
There are tons of little gem magnolias planted close to houses. It shouldn't be a problem.
Between Teddy Bear and Little Gem; which is a freer bloomer?
Can you comment on the health benefits of the southern magnolia?
What is the safest distance when planting a Teddy Bear Magnolia near a house? TIA!!
I tried my luck planting a teddy bear in zone 6b. It's sort of nestled in amongst other trees on my hill in the back yard. Can (should) I burlap that over the winter?
Yes, it will help, but usually all that happens is the leaves get a bit browned out from winter burn. It actually looks kind of interesting, and in the spring they just shed those leaves anyway. The real issue is the root system freezing hard and killing the magnolia right to the ground. Since its a new plant you should also plant some evergreen ground cover to insulate it during the winter. Azalea's are a good choice because they like the same soil acidity. If you wait too long to plant a ground cover you won't be able to because of the magnolias feeder roots.
Where can these be purchased? I can’t find any for sale
I've been planning to grow a few little gems didnt know much about the teddy bear. Which is smallest as a mature tree? Full sun in 7a?
They are likely about the same size. Alta, little gem, and teddy bear seem similar
Zman Teddybears smaller
Zman They get about 16ft especially in your cooler climate a little Gem can get 30
@@natee2169 They don't just stop growing. The one in the video is over 20 feet in zone 7b.
I am surprised that this video is not on your "native plants" playlist
Jim, I have a young 6 ft teddy bear magnolia that currently has a poor bush like shape, how do I trim to promote a more typical shape. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
You can tip prune all the branches. An example will be in tomorrow's video
Do you have teddy bear magnolia tree and how much are your prices?
Teddy bear and brackens brown beauty are my favorite varieties.
I agree and I would add Kay Paris. That is the best one for making arrangements and wreaths
HortTube with Jim Putnam I’ve never heard of that one, I’ll have to look into it!

Jim, do the newer plants drop leaves during the year. Seems like the old native ones drop all the time.
Well part of the issue there is in our landscapes we tend to have very dry and very wet conditions seasonally. That causes a lot of interior leaf drop during the summer. A plant in a bed with mulch that is not competing with tons of other things would be less likely to shed constantly.
As much as I love the look of Magnolia Grandiflora, I think I'm just going to pass on planting one. They do seem like dirty trees, and if you don't pick up after them the water that collects in the litter is a perfect breeding ground for mosquitos.
