Abstract

It was noticed that several grafted plants within the Lincoln University magnolia collection had performed poorly or died. It was decided to examine the possible reasons for this and to evaluate other plantings with the objective of explaining why these problems of establishment have occurred, so that recommendations can be made to help improve the success in establishing magnolias in the future.
