What trees should not be planted in a summer cottage next to the house, so as not to regret later

Each summer resident wants to plant greenery on his site. Trees are best used for this purpose. However, not every owner thinks during planting that some plants can cause serious damage to the country. Especially if they find themselves next to cobbled paths, agricultural buildings or a residential building. The worst thing is that the summer resident will face the negative consequences of the wrong choice only after 10-15 years.

Many summer residents underestimate the power of trees. However, it is worth looking at the grass breaking through the asphalt in order to be convinced of the ability of nature to break through to life where it would seem impossible. Tree roots can naturally harm even more. True, the growing rhizome is not the only serious problem that the owner may face. No less danger to the summer resident is the crown of the plant. So, what trees should you definitely not plant near your home?

In fact, the vast majority of trees are not the best neighbors to build. Here, first of all, people remember about beech, elm, chestnut, birch, larch. However, all of the listed tree-destroyers pale against the background of the next five.

1. Ash

In our latitudes, ash is one of the fastest growing trees. From which there are quite natural difficulties. And the most important thing is that ash has a very massive root system, which has sufficient strength to raise the concrete foundation of the house, including the entire building at risk.

2. Linden

Another very fast growing tree. Linden gains the most in the volume of the trunk and root system in the first two years of growth. Already at this time, the roots of the tree can seriously harm the foundation of the house or the paths from the family. Therefore, it is best to plant a linden tree at a distance of ten meters.

3. Poplar

This tree species poses a threat to the dacha economy not only with its massive roots, which grow close to the surface of the earth in a radius of up to 20 meters around the tree. Poplar is also dangerous because it has extremely loose wood by nature. As a result, poplar breaks in any more or less strong wind.

4. Bird cherry

This tree also has a developed and extremely powerful root system. Once next to the house, bird cherry is guaranteed to raise the foundation in one of the places. The radius of growth of the root system can reach 12 meters. Needless to say, some have smaller plots these days.

In addition to the danger posed by the root system, maple should not be planted in your country house for another reason. The fact is that this plant is extremely voracious and will rapidly draw water and nutrients from the soil, leaving other plants without valuable rhesus. Therefore, there is no place for maple either next to the house, or next to the flower bed, or next to the garden bed.
