Magnolia tree moving

Question

I have a magnolia tree about 4 yrs old it is begging to bud but it is being overshadowed by another big plant can I move it when it is budding or do I have to leave it

Answer 1

I would leave it until winter, when it is not actively growing. This can grow in moderate shade, but too much will cause it to grow poorly.
