I was curious if any of you know how long it takes for a Southern Magnolia to start blooming. I've had mine now for about 2 years and it hasn't started blooming yet.....however it was a cutting taken from my mother's tree. It has been extremely happy in my yard and now is about 18 inches tall. Can you help me know when to expect blooms? Quote \| Reply \| Report
