How do you plant flowers at base of a tree>?

Depends on the tree and the flowers.





Your tree must be able to survive with a little dirt around its trunk (you never want to build dirt up too far on the trunk, not more than a few inches, or your suffocate the tree or cause rot). And your flowers must survive in shade.





Once you have those two things, bring in some dirt, or losen existing soil, plant your flowers, and put down a little mulch.





Its great if you can mix some peat in with teh dirt. Good for flowers, good for trees.

Reply:I made a tree ring with pavers and added some top soil. Some of the plants did well but for others the shade was too dense. The tree roots didn't suffer any damage. Don't try planting around a citrus or you will damage it.

Reply:First you have to make sure none of the flowers have long or deep root bases and make sure you tree also does not have an aggresive root structure. The two systems will collide and your flowers will likely die.





So make sure you get flowers with shallow spread roots. (The roots will be very thin and spindly rather than long and thick.)





Leave enough room around the base (a foot or so) and start planting. Remember though that pesticides you may use on your flowers will affect your tree as well.genealogy mormon
