From Question and Answer Forums: What are others saying about this plant?
Hello. I just purchased a 12-ft umbrella magnolia mag tripetala. There is a lot of good info for planting this type of tree but websites offer conflicting info on site placement pertaining to the amount of sun. Some recommend full sun while other suggest partial to shaded light. Most of the photos I have found look as if the trees are in full sun. Any thoughts on this thanks,mike holba
