Is it advisable to relocate a large magnolia soulangeana If so when and how do I do it?

We had one many years ago we offered it to a local arbouretum (excuse spelling) as it was too big for the garden. They came and dug the biggest hole around the roots you could imagine and took it away as far as I know some 12 years later its still growing strong.



Make sure you have the hole ready for it well watered and manure or feed in there. Dig around the roots but make sure you don't hit the roots and hopefully it will like its new home. Not sure how big yours is but ours was about 6 foot and it needed 4 men to move it.

Reply:The simple answer is no they dont like being moved much although you maybe lucky in the autumn/winter but i would'nt chance it
