magnolia elizabeth plant


Question
I just purchased this plant it's about 5ft tall and bushy.
The leaves are curled and spotted,like water spots.The flowers turn brown and fall off without opening. However is has an abundance of new growth.
What's wrong?

Answer
If you set the plant outside and water overhead, the water droplets could be causing a scorch if the plant is in full sun.  It could also be transplant shock, if you just set it in the ground.  The flowers falling off sound like transplant shock as well.  I would allow the plant some time to acclimate to its new environment before becoming concerned.  Good Luck.
