I have a 2' x 30' planter that my swimming pool backs up to. I'm looking for slow growing, low maintenance, colorful evergreen trees that won't get too big and roots that won't damage my pool. |
Along with concern about invasive roots, trees and shrubs planted near pools should be as litter-free as possible, to keep from making a mess in and around the pool. Some suggestions include Acacia stenophylla (shoestring acacia), Ensete (banana), tree ferns, palms and Schefflera. |
