How to fertilize Fastigiate 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 Fastigiate Magnolia after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I love it when #GregID says your pet is a plant. Apparently i have a magnolia tree, that uproots itself every once in a while and travels to a sunnier location. Needs lots of sun and little to no water for best results :) #PetsAndPlants #PlantID #catsandplants #CatsOfGreg

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
