Many summer residents try to “improve” their plot and decorate it with various trees and shrubs.
However, some plants can become a real headache for summer residents after planting.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh explained which trees are best not to plant on a summer cottage plot.
What is better not to plant
Willow poses a certain danger to the dacha. This plant has very powerful roots.
Moreover, they can grow greatly, damaging pipes and the foundations of buildings.
The same applies to the walnut tree. The root system of this tree can also pose a certain danger to the foundation of the house.
Its large crown can create shade, under which not all plants can grow.
You shouldn't plant acacia on your plot either. Firstly, it's not that easy to take care of.
Moreover, the roots of this plant are also very strong, and therefore can cause damage to communications.
In addition, acacia grows quickly, taking up a lot of space.
Birch is also a bad option for planting in a summer cottage.
The soil under this tree dries out very quickly, so it will be difficult to maintain a lawn under it.
What can be planted
You can plant a thuja on the plot. It will not only decorate it, but will also act as a kind of hedge.
Some also use spruce for this purpose. Rowan or viburnum will be a bright decoration of the site.
