Tuesday 7 January 2025

The last flowers before winter on the Magnolia grandiflora (evergreen magnolia, bull bay, great laurel-leaved magnolia, southern magnolia) still had a wonderful fragrance. After flowering the central seedcase can produce bright red seeds. This plant makes a large, rounded evergreen tree.

Need help choosing a massive tree species for your large landscape? Knowing which tree species grow to larger proportions will help you fill vast areas of your landscape with shaded recreational areas.

thetreecareguide.com gathered species, planting, and care information for some of the more massive trees hardy to large zone 7 landscapes.

1. Weeping Willow (Salix babylonica)

Weeping willows are recognized for their long, drooping branches and delicate leaves. They are typically found near fresh-water sources, as they have a strong affinity for moisture and thrive in damp soil. The weeping willow’s growth rate is fast, with new growth appearing each year. They can reach a mature size of 40 to 50 feet in height and spread, with a broad canopy that provides significant shade.

Weeping willows are hardy in USDA zones 6 through 8 and are easy to care for. They require consistent moisture to thrive, so they should be watered regularly. This tree species benefits from fertilization in the spring and pruning in the winter to maintain shape and encourage healthy growth. The weeping willow is a stunning addition to any large landscape and offer a peaceful, calming presence with their gentle sway in the breeze.

This blooming flower was happily at our level. A stop of underexposure was used here to keep the white flowers from clipping and also to tone down the surrounding foliage.
