Where to put it:

Dr. Merrill Magnolia is an excellent feature accent tree. Because of its smaller size and shrub-like form, Dr. Merrill Magnolia is commonly used in the front or back landscape to provide accent or anchoring, or around a deck or patio to provide screening. This tree should be planted at least 10ft away from buildings. This is a clump tree, so keep in mind that it will block the view of anything you put it in front of.

What it needs:

Dr. Merrill Magnolia is an extremely tolerant tree that can grow in almost any condition. Be sure to follow our watering guidelines for the first few growing seasons until the root system is well-established.
