Unfortunately, after just a year he realizes that he made a mistake and it would be better if these trees or bushes did not appear on the site at all.

Let's see what the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh warns about.

Even if they are able to survive the winter, exotic trees and shrubs need additional shelter.
