How to fertilize Umbrella Magnolia
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Umbrella Magnolia after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

What’s eating my magnolia? I had it outside for a while but the leaves seemed to be getting brown and broke. Thanks for any knowledge you can share!

First plant first question :) Hello. This is my first time growing plants from seed. Baby magnolia is only 1 month old :) I just downloaded this app. I wonder if anyone else grows magnolia from seed and wants to write about it :)

I think she’s dead…😕 I live in southwestern oregon and we’ve had a few freezes but no heavy snow or anything, she gets plenty of water but not as much sunshine. (it’s Oregon haha) There are no new leaves, buds or growth of any kind. 🤨 #Magnolia #MulanMagnolia #PlantAddict #OutdoorGrowing #OutsidePlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #HappyPlants
