Tree roots

Post by Amy »

Potentially surprising information about the extent of tree root systems - useful background info.
How far - how deep - why - oxygen - compaction - waterlogging - water table - barriers...
https://www.trees.org.uk/Trees.org.uk/f ... 16aa9e.pdf
from The Tree Advice Trust, old, but still useful.

This website also has info on such topics as
- pests and diseases
- young tree establishment
- girdling, constriction and ring barking
- ivy boon or bane?
- composting woody wastes
