I am now no longer too worried about the trees even during this drought...just found out over the weekend how tenacious their roots are. I guess as long as they are as matured and as big as the ones along our fence line..it will send out its roots as far as it can get to find its much needed moisture.
The lovely trees... our tall shade here...
and found its roots, under our pavers..I have intentionally not planted anything inground around my house..all plants in containers...but the trees..those roots found its way, this is near my faucet area..so it was helping itself out.
We decided to lift some of the pavers, since some were getting loose and uneven..such a surprise to see an elaborate root system there. For awhile I have been thinking maybe the ants have found a way to dislodge the pavers..sorry ants, my mistake..just the roots seeking moisture.
