Where to put it:

Merrill Magnolia is an excellent feature accent tree. Because of its smaller size and shrub-like form, Merrill Magnolia is commonly used in the front or back landscape to provide accent or anchoring, or around a deck or patio to provide screening. This tree should be planted at least 10ft away from buildings. This is a clump tree, so keep in mind that it will block the view of anything you put it in front of.
