Prune your magnolia right after it blooms. Some magnolias bloom in early spring, others in summer. Regardless of type, prune after the main flush of bloom.

Plant trees in a sheltered spot to avoid damage from freezing temperatures. The western and southern exposures are usually the warmest. Planting trees near buildings also provides protection from chilling winds and weather. Keep magnolias watered, even during winter, to keep them strong and healthy.reeze Damage. Freeze-damaged areas of magnolia trees may become soft and limp, eventually dropping from the tree after they blacken and shrivel. Flower buds exposed to freezing temperatures will dry up and fail to bloom, and flowering could be prevented all over the tree for the remainder of the season.
