When should I prune my magnolia tree? #864846

Asked April 17, 2024, 11:08 AM EDT

I have a magnolia tree which didn't bloom this spring. The leaves have not come out yet but are getting close. I am wondering if this would be a good time to prune it. It has a couple lower branches which need to come off to give it a better shape. Also is it wise to put fertilizer around the base of the tree? Thank you
