Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Free Plants

This was posted in the gardening discussions but posting in the general threads to see if there is any interest.

I plan to remove a small Magnolia and a heavily pruned Mock Orange Philadelphus from my garden.

I've read that magnolia's can be tricky to transplant. This one has not thrived in its planting position (planted close to a fence, so much of the foliage is to one side). I'm happy to sever the roots around the base to help its chances and leave for a few months if there are any takers (but can of course dig up now).

The mature Mock Orange was poorly positioned but thrived, however I heavily pruned this back.

I also have a potted Abelia x grandiflora 'Confetti' (minus the pot).

I've attached a photo of the magnolia.

Please could I have the abelia? I would be very grateful! Can collect tomorrow or whenever suits you! I would also love the mock orange if you think it would grow in a big pot? Thanks so much!

Someone has already asked for the magnolia, but the mock orange is ready for collection if anyone wants it. It's heavy with all the soil around the root ball and would need to be planted immediately.
