 Palms around above ground pool
But the bottom of the pool isn't paved or concrete it's a vinyl liner and the smallest impressions or roots will be felt and seen.
I know this from experience and cutting bus loads of palms down around pools, including many above ground pools.
In one yard the pool was in the middle and the palms along the fenceline some 4m away, the bottom of the pool looked like a road map! When they got rid of the pool I went back to cut the palms down, it was just thick with small roots, not much bigger than a pencil and tons of little hairy ones. Obviously enough air there.
This is normal, dont under estimate palm roots, they travel for a long distance and when people say palms dont have big root systems .... define big? Yeah, you wont see no 8" dia mother roots etc but there's thousands of these little buggers the size of pencils going everywhere, they dont blow over in sand much do they? |
