We had a Star Magnolia for 20-25 years. About 5 years ago it developed a black growth on it's branches and abruptly died. We would like to replace it with a Star Magnolia in it's same location but since we are not familiar with it's disease we fear it may reoccur. Can you help us with this? The area seems to be dormant as we haven't been able to grow simple begonias in the soil. What can we plant there instead. It was a specimen plant and does not have that much room for height. (See Picture Below. It is of the area where we want to plant another Magnolia and there is a stake in the spot. )
