Plant Profile: Japanese Magnolias
As spring starts to peek around the corner, Japanese Magnolias burst into a dramatic display that features large tulip shaped purple, pink or white blooms appearing before the leaves. The large fuzzy buds will also add unique interest to the winter garden making this tree a striking accent to your landscape! Choose a planting site that is fertile and well drained. Dig the hole twice as wide as the root ball, but no deeper. The top of the root ball should be placed so that it is slightly above the surrounding soil level. Be sure to water regularly to help establish a healthy root system.
