Q: Can you plant a tree over a ground up stump?

• <div><p>It is possible to plant a tree over a ground stump if it was ground very deeply. However, it is typically best to plant elsewhere so your new tree has room to establish a strong, healthy root system. If you want to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-plant-tree.htm">plant a tree</a> in the same spot where you currently have a stump, you may want to consider other options, such as stump removal.</p></div>

Q: How far should metal edging be from the ground?

• <div><p>A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won&rsquo;t stay in place.</p></div>

Q: How deep do bamboo roots grow?

• <div><p>Most bamboo can send roots down two to three feet into the ground. However, when stopping bamboo from spreading, the focus is on the runner roots or rhizomes. These roots are much shallower, staying 12 inches or less from the surface, so they&rsquo;re easier to find and remove. But if you want to remove the bamboo entirely, you&rsquo;ll have to dig out the full root system.</p></div>

Q: What should you do with areas of grass that won't grow?

• <div><p>There are several reasons <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-dead-grass-your-lawn-inevitable.htm">your grass may be dying</a> that could be in or out of your control. The most common issues include poor drainage, under/overwatering, poor soil pH, low soil nutrients, low sunlight, or too much foot traffic.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: How far apart should privet be planted?

• <div><p>Plant privet hedges at least 1 foot apart in a trench about 2 feet wide and 2 feet deep. It&rsquo;s important to space privet hedges relatively far apart due to how quickly they grow to significant sizes and heights. You don&rsquo;t want to crowd privet plants, or they could overcrowd each other, causing unwanted damage.</p></div>
