Planting Too Close to the House and Road and Other...
Clip: Season 19 Episode 1 | 5m 56s
Learn how to avoid some of the common mistakes we make when planting trees and shrubs.
Visit a site in Egg Harbor where birches, crabs and junipers had been planted too close to the building and the road. Years later, they are now hazardous to traffic, block the building from view, and creating an almost "hidden shopping complex." This is a very common mistake people make when planting trees and shrubs. Caleb Whitney shows us the fixed side and the unfixed side.
