FWIW, big leaf magnolia (magnolia macrophylla is generally NOT evergreen). IF you are in the PNW (if you're not the madrone (arbutus menziesii) may not be a happy tree.


some other trees/large shrubs that can be trained as trees to possibly consider:
English laurel/prunus lauracerasus
Portugal laurel/p. lusitanica
Carolina cherry-laurel/p. caroliniana
holly oak/quercus ilex
canyon live oak/q. chrysolepis
Japanese live oak/q. myrsinifolia...

Prunus lusitanica Portugal laurel 6
Prunus caroliana Carolina laurel 7b
Prunus laurocerasus cherry laurel English 6
Schipkaensis
Lyoni
Ilicifolia 6

no thoughts to ponder.
