Magnolia

I have just bought a rather straggly magnolia can I shape it now?

    Yes, now is ideal for magnolias, especially newly planted ones.  They don't really like being pruned but you are best doing it now rather than a few years down the line if it needs shaping.  More here from the RHS:

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
