Magnolia tree help.
I bought my OH one of these and expectin it by post soon.
We have a circular space in the middle of the front garden and wondered if it would be better in a pot on top of this space or actually planted in the space, would it bear up through the winter,
Any advice would be welcome.
Thanks.

I've had a magnolia outside in a pot for a couple of years and it's been fine over the winter. It's a stellata, which is a dwarf one, ie it only grows to 4 x3 metres!. It's now outgrowing its pot, so I'm going to have to start pruning it to try to keep it to a manageable size. If yours is one of the full size ones it might struggle in a pot after a few years.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
