This is a tough one to explain. Is it ok to plant a tree deep(not deep enough to cut off oxygen) in a small sidewalk square--knowing that it will get to a certain size and decline(girdled roots)? Some trees in a downtown setting need to grow tall enough for lower branches to be removed(for traffic clearance)--but not too large in diameter. This is for zone 3-5. Any thoughts????
