Trees – No Tap Roots
Driving to dinner with friends after a big storm, I came upon this. A big tree next to a driveway fell and flipped over the car on the driveway!
Notice one particular point – trees growing in our clay soils don’t have taproots. The roots spread out in a pancake fashion beyond the drip line to give anchoring strength. It wasn’t enough for this tree though!
