Last fallo we planted a tree in my father's memory. Sadly the deer feasted on it over the winter. Adding a wind chime will hopefully deter the deer but more importantly remind me of my father.
This tree is a Saucer Magnolia (not a true Magnolia- not an evergreen) also called a 'big leaf' magnolia. They get pretty big but are the first trees to bloom in spring.
I have a very small Jane magnolia that I bought at Kmart this spring...still in the container. How long does it take to grow? I have a spot that needs something to attain it's mature height in about 10 yrs.
