But the spectacular qualities don't stop there. This beauty produces heavenly fragrant, lemony sweet fragrant white flowers from mid spring all the way to mid fall. Silver Mist has much fuller foliage than does the species with an absolutely distinct conical form making it a fine selection for evergreen privacy screen plantings. Small cone-like fruits with showy bright red seeds are displayed in fall. The large and glossy leaves provide a lush, tropical effect in the landscape. Sweet Bay Magnolia has the ability to maintain a straight central trunk with age, which allows it to be grown full to the ground or lower branches can be removed to form a very attractive tree with a visible trunk. Will tolerate somewhat boggy soils.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWildlife Value\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe Silver Mist Sweetbay Magnolia is host to Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Buttefly and the fruits and dense canopy attract birds.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNote:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e In the northern part of its growing range (USDA Zones 5-7) the Silver Mist Sweetbay Magnolia typically grows as a 15 to 25 feet tall and 10 to 15 feet wide.
