We've moved into a house that has a Magnolia tree, about 10 feet tall, that I don't think has ever been tended. There is lots of sticks around the base of the tree and some of the branches are touching the ground. I think it would grow & look better if it was cleaned up a bit. It's got lots of buds on it and I know I must wait until it has finished blooming before I prune, but is this tree one that bleeds? How long after blooming should I wait? Any Magnolia experts out there? Same goes for a Lilac tree. Lots of brush at the base of that! Again, same questions!
