What's the easiest way to clean up these magnolia petals? And should I? Increased difficulty because they're also wet from a recent rain. I love this tree but dang I hate this mess. Any suggestions welcome!
Shop vac? Personally I think it looks beautiful but I can understand someone being frustrated with the mess.

Mulch them with the lawn mower.

Run em over with the mower with bag attached

mulch with lawn mower a few times, then make a pass with the bag on – no sense in getting it all perfect when more will fall soon

Lawn rake 🤷🏻♂️

That’s a great picture with that carpet of fallen petals! Just needed the two chairs facing each other with a couple of steaming cups of coffee on the table…

We have a camellia and a magnolia next to each other. I love to see them bloom, but it ends up looking like wet toilet paper in the yard when they fall off and start browning 🤮

They have leaf vacuums now. You’re welcome.

How absolutely beautiful. Yeah, we need to clean up nature’s artwork.

Leave it, it’s beautiful.
Once they turn brown you can rake and blow
Huh, we’re officially in April and yet, not a single comment to “just nuke it”.
I’m surprised.
I call that progress.

I would just run it over with the mower to mulch it all.

Mow them. Or blower into a pile, jump in them, then bag them

I’d say use a leaf blower, but judging by the name you may only be able to use those to blow leaves. Come to think of it, maybe you’re only able to use it for a single leaf or they’d call it a leaves blower. Maybe try mulching with the lawn mower but then what could be done about the pedals that aren’t on the lawn.

Honestly, it looks LOVELY like that!
In a few days after they start to rot, just mow with the bag and dump into trash bags. Or if your mower mulches well, just do that.

Use a mower on the highest setting and bag them.

Why would you? They’re beautiful and will decompose on their own. Just mow your lawn when it needs it and don’t worry about it
