Re: maples


I have maples but most of my hostas are planted under oaks.  I have one plot
that I will be digging this spring to rid myself of too many fortunei and
undulatas.  I surely hope I don't find what I found under the one Crimson
King maple I dug into year before last.  Would never have planted all of the
Sweet Std there if I had known how the hosta roots and tree roots would
become as one.  I dug enough to place a bench under the tree on one side and
left the remainder of the hostas there.  I could not even begin to dig
hostas!  I thought I was digging up the tree.
