      Which tree is best to combat diesel pollution?

      The Magnolia kobus is one of the best trees for tackling diesel pollution — and it’s a beautiful choice, too. In spring, it produces elegant, pure white flowers, and in autumn, its lush green leaves turn a striking yellow before falling.

      Magnolia is an ancient genus, and Magnolia kobus is the parent species of many cultivated varieties. While it doesn’t flower quite as freely as the more commonly planted Magnolia soulangeana, it plays a vital role in improving air quality, and it’s far more dependable than some questionable car manufacturers when it comes to reducing pollution!

      We now grow this tree widely as a standard tree, ideal for both urban areas and private gardens. So, if you’re lucky enough to have one planted nearby, you can enjoy its lovely spring blossoms and take pride in having one of the best pollution-fighting trees right outside your door.
