Default Re: How roots navigate around obstacles in the soil

We just completed this land clearing contract and this was a driveway in one of the yards where a camphor laurel had lifted the fence aswell as the driveway about 15-20 inches.



We were going to grind out the other side of the fence stump half, but found aspestos when raking it back so we let our client deal with the stumps being dug out and having the aspestos professionally removed. We did poison the stumps though, for the meantime.


This picture really doesn't do the justice of the destruction going on here.


This is a crappy edit by me trying to show the level ground, where it should be...
