Are this trees safe to plant close to drive way? Not sure if the roots can damage the cement?

Hi Jose I have 40 emerald green near my driveway and have had no problems. The roots are shallow but not extensive. This would be a great tree to plant by the driveway. I hope the information helps. Take care.

As I don't believe there is any chemicals that would harm either a live or artificial tree, I believe you could, but I would first spray on a test area near the trunk, to make sure no fading or adverse affects happen before spraying whole tree. Just the same, there are other products to keep cats away from area.

Based on all that I have read it should be safe. I do not recall a warning for garden use. Ultimately, I think the manufacturer may be best suited to answer your question definitively.

I have mine on a tree at the end of the drive. I think if it's covered, you will have a weak signal or none at all

The base of each side has a crossbar to stabilize the width. Below that are "rods" about 4 inches in length that penetrate the soil, if you call that an anchor. Here in Arizona our ground is very hard and once we dug the holes, refilled the dirt around the rods and watered the ground to compact it, it was very stable. Then the plant we draped over the arbor was mature and we secured it to the top of the arbor. If you are in an area where your soil is soft then I would probably cement the rods below ground level as an anchor.

Mine is located on a cement patio exposed to the elements. Yes it does rust(not severe). Looks better once oxidized. There is no hole on bottom so ashes wont fall down onto you wood patio. The support feet are of good thickness and dont appear to get hot. After reading the request for info I tested that last night. Bob

If you wait long enough anything will block them up. But the rain will still get through to the downspouts. My daughter had the tree from H)*&& and they worked very well for four years now. Just clean them out every year.

I live in CT, planted my tree last fall and it survived the crazy winter we experienced without being covered. So based on my experience I would say no the frost will not kill it.

I do have trees and would think will be the best but I know you can have cemented posts or metal poles in order to have a good support due to requires a lot... Hope this helps

I only recomend anchoring the feet that attaches to the legs, with some good heavy strong long stakes. You can mfind tent stakes that look just like a huge nail. I would not achor with cement as it will rust some metals. Cement ate up my wheelbarrow bottom. Great, strong canopy. Mel

I anchored it to the ground with quick setting cement on the four posts. I have had it up for 3 years with 2 clematis vines growing on it with no problems.

We did not cement it. We buried them in the ground slightly just to level it (our yard had a slight slope)and just used the anchors. It is very VERY sturdy...it's not going anywhere. My husband and I even tried swinging/tried to make it budge.

Use wood lugs. Should be just fine. Make sure the lug is long enough to go about 3'' into the tree, through the bark.

Depending on the climate, once a month if dry. Be careful to not leave it alone for too long. You can saturate the soil and cause root rot or worse float the tree right out of the ground. I've heard from my tree guy that he had a customer fell a large maple because the roots had nothing to hold on to but mud. Left the thing on overnight...bummer.

I have it in a completely fenced backyard with bushes and flowers in it so I don't have that problem. I needed to plant in a place where there were too many roots to dig so I used this in that area and it has worked great.

I used some of the screwins on a tree, but they weren't really getting hit to bad with the sun or elements, but i would think they would be alright they are super sturdy, really had materiel its almost like real rock. Good luck!
