Behind our house is a hill that was planted with pine trees (20-25 years ago) to screen and give privacy from the road, and houses across that street. The trees are quit big and there are no longer "low" or "screening branches". Two trees were taken down by the township because they were dead.
Today I bought some small Dwarf Alberta Spruce trees that will grow to 3-4' high. I want to fill in the holes where the trees were cut down. There are roots close to the surface. Do you think these dwarf Alberta Spruce trees will survive?
What do I need to know about the acid in the soil? Should I add extra dirt?
I have a black thumb, help?
Also, I got some Juncus tall grass. Will It do OK in full sun? I want to screen a big utility box in my front yard.
Thank you,
Maureen
