In part two of Stormwater “Roots”, we are talking about the “design” challenges of planting trees in confined urban spaces. We will be looking at constraints and best practices for good tree growth and survival for street trees and ultra urban plantings. Topics may include soil conditions, life spans and infrastructure conflicts.
