Is this time of the year (in the Pacific Northwest) a good time to trim back a Magnolia Tree?

Here's what I've found There's usually a right and wrong time to prune plants... and definitely a right and wrong WAY to do so. According to doityourself.com/stry/magnolias here's how to do it right for Magnolias. Pruning and Mulching It isn't necessary to prune branches to encourage growth after transplanting, although you can prune an ungainly plant to improve its appearance.In cold-winter climates, prune precocious magnolias in summer after they've bloomed.

Prune all others when they're dormant. Keep a circle of mulch around the tree, and continue fertilizing as needed. However, so the plant will stop producing new growth and will harden off, don't fertilize it after midsummer.

Magnolias can take an irritatingly long time to bloom, anywhere from 2 or 3 years to 12 to 15 years ( M. Campbellii can take 20). Hope that helps.

Cheers.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
