I don’t think they would, however, without knowing anything about your foundation, yard, climate, etc., I’m not able to provide you with pros and cons — other than to get the best advice, ask your local garden nursery experts. Take a picture of the area you’d like to plant a Magnolia Jane with you — perhaps on your mobile phone, as that will help the local garden experts to help you!

Hello,

Will Jane Magnolia trees ruin foundation if planted next to a house? Pros & Cons. Regards

In reply to jane.

Your wish is my command, Jane! Or should I say: better late than never? It took me awhile, but I didn’t forget! I’ve got a new Magnolia Jane post up here: https://www.petscribbles.com/2017/07/magnolia-jane-in-the-summer.html
Enjoy!

Luara, I really would love to see a photo of you’re Jane trees/shrubs now that they are 10ft. I have one that I planted in my front yard which I’m hoping will be more like a tree. Ive been looking online and see so many different photos and photos describing them as shrubs and some describing them trees. I really would like to know if they grow more like trees or shrubs and I think a photo from someone who is not trying to sell one would be a more honest representation. Sooo photo please!! Thank you in advance.

Glad I could help Ann! Texas also has a favorite tree of mine that is treasured up here in New Jersey: the Crepe Myrtle! It’s treasured up here because there’s no guarantee — due to the Winters — how Crepe Myrtles will look year to year. They aren’t easy to grow up here. (But once I saw them in Texas while visiting friends, I had to try! My Texan friends were surprised I was so over-the-moon about Crepe Myrtles, because they’re everywhere apparently in your neck of the woods!) We’ve got two in our front yard. I even put one as the main focal point in the center garden bed in front. However, last year’s blooms were a bit on the “meh” side – not spectacular at all. But I’m hopeful once it gets established more. Fingers and paws crossed!

Ohhh I love those beautiful trees/shrubs. Those blooms are just gorgeous. They are : also the very first thing that blooms here in Texas. I had no idea what they so we just referred to them as tulip trees. Lovely lovely pictures. Know you were crushed when the freeze came. Enjoyed reading about these so very much. Thank you
