Port Wine Magnolias

[Milton]

I have a large number of Port Wine Magnolias in my garden all thriving. I want to plant some as a screening hedge along the front of my house, it is South facing and would not get a lot of sun. Any suggestions, thanks Milton

Hi @Milton,

Welcome to the Workshop community. We are pleased that you could join us. 

As @Adam_W shared in this very popular discussion, Port Wine Magnolias make excellent hedging plants but the trick is pruning – prune early and often to keep them nice and bushy.

Have a good look at that previous discussion and let us know if you have any further questions. 

Thanks,

Jason
