What trees should not be planted in a summer cottage: remember once and for all

An empty plot without plantings seems uninviting, so summer residents plant flowers, shrubs and trees.

Moreover, all these are not necessarily fruit crops. Bushes and trees are used for decoration, protection from wind or scorching sun. But not all species are suitable for this.

Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" - a scientist, agronomist and landscape designer, named three trees that should not be planted in a garden plot.

Maple

Some varieties of this tree grow very quickly - mainly box elder.

It produces countless shoots and it becomes problematic to remove it without using heavy chemicals.

In addition, in autumn, maples make it much more difficult to maintain the area due to the abundance of fallen leaves.

Spruce

Fans of coniferous crops are encouraged to contact nurseries, where they can purchase decorative varieties of popular seedlings.

Before you plant a Christmas tree brought from the forest on your property, think about the powerful roots that can damage the foundation or utilities.

In addition, the tree can affect the composition of the soil.

Birch

Birch has no obvious disadvantages except one: it is a moisture-loving tree, which will compete with fruit crops.

It makes sense to plant a birch tree in a lowland or at a high groundwater level to reduce humidity.

For reference

A tree is a form of woody plant with a single, distinct, perennial, woody to varying degrees, persistent throughout life, branched (except for palms) main axis - the trunk.
