Can I plant a tree in a container and then submerge/bury the container (with the tree in it) in the ground? The reason for this is because my HOA requires one tree to be planted in the ground (front of house, not exposed pots, and I wanted to keep my tree small and slow growth, without roots spreading underground massively and affecting my home foundation.

Garden Answer It looks like the hostas were planted between the tree dirt and the wall of the container, but it looks like the yellow flowers were planted on top of the tree dirt ball. Does that mess up the crown of the tree? I would think it would keep the tree trunk under dirt and moisture. Many thanks in advance for a response. Love your videos.

Love that Bloodgood. Have you considered root pruning to extend a tree's life in a container?
Sorry, after last winter I no longer expect mild ones. I lost too much (in Seattle) and the replacements are all much hardier than my listed zone. With climate change I just can't trust the weather any more. Cheers!

I have two Bloodgoods that I may need to remove, they are stressed. They have very little shade where they are. I was told they could take the heat. Maybe some heat but they get too much in the afternoon. I live in zone 7.
This stationary camera video was perfect for me!

I root prune my Japanese Maples so I can keep them in pots. I have done this with fruit trees as well. When I re-pot them every few years I just prune the roots by about 1/3 and re-pot with fresh potting soil in the same pot. I have 3 Japanese Maples I have kept in pots for about 20 years now.

Its so fun to watch your growth. its September 3, 2021 and to listen to you now you are much more comfortable speaking into the camera. This video was shot about 5 years ago and you are speaking soooo fast.
Keep up the great work and enjoying your confidence

Hi, I'm so happy I found you on my suggestion list. I love all your landscaping and container ideas. Love the beautiful arrangements you create.
Would I be able to use a mix of Potting Mix and Tree and Shrub Mix to a container to plant a tree or shrub?

I LOVE Japanese maples! I have two in pots and two in the ground. All the info. you gave is correct! I follow the same rules for my Japanese maples. Mine in pots are way smaller than that big guy! But I love the underplanting. It looks great!

I bought a bloodgood red maple tree and lately, the leaves are getting crispy looking. It is planted in a spot where day sun and around 4PM shade. When I first planted it looked great. Can you tell me what I can do to save it? Thank you.
