Choose a sunny or partially shaded, sheltered position with fertile, moist but well-drained soil. Magnolias generally perform best in neutral to acidic conditions and appreciate protection from strong, cold winds.
Prepare a generous planting hole and position the root ball at approximately the same depth as it has been growing in the pot. Firm gently and water thoroughly after planting.
Water regularly throughout the first growing season while the plant establishes. Applying an organic mulch around the base will help conserve moisture and improve the surrounding soil.
Magnolias require very little routine pruning. If necessary, remove damaged or unwanted growth after flowering.
