It's Easy to Plant your Sweetbay Magnolia
Step 1 - Dig Your Hole Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Sweetbay Magnolia. If you're planting a hedge, mark out a visual guide by placing stakes five to six feet apart and looping string around them. Plant the trees where the stakes are and they'll grow together to make a dense privacy screen. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.

Step 2 - Place Your Tree Next, separate the roots of your Sweetbay Magnolia gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the tree is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
Step 3 - Backfill Your Hole As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Sweetbay Magnolia again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each tree to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips or pine needles also help to better soil structure as they decompose.

This tree seems to be doing well we had a very unusually warm March and then frost so I hope it perks up

By: Millicent

My Sweetbay Magnolia was shipped and received in perfect order, the packing of the tree for shipping was done with the utmost care for the tree in mind. The tree hasn't necessarily "grown" in the last nine months, but it's healthy and always full with leaves and has already had numerous blossoms on it. I think I made a great purchase when I bought this tree and I look forward to its future growth.
