There are trees that professionals strongly recommend not to plant near your home.

Among these they name poplar, oak, walnut, willow and aspen. Why? We will find out further.

As for the poplar, since this plant has a hollow and fragile trunk, it can be broken by a strong gust of wind.

Is it worth mentioning what the consequences may be for the owner of a small plot? And if a tree falls on a house?

It would be good if people were not hurt. But it could also fall on a parked car, a gazebo, or other objects on the property.

The second reason: many people are allergic to poplar fluff.

The oak is dangerous because its powerful roots can damage the integrity of the foundation. With all the ensuing consequences.

Walnut is the same as oak. But in addition to the roots, there is also a danger in the nuts themselves: when falling, they can damage the roof of the house and buildings on the site.

In addition, a multi-meter walnut tree casts such a shadow that not all crops can grow under it.

But mystics, who are convinced that these plants suck the energy out of people, do not recommend “settling” willows and aspens on a plot with a house.
