Re: Redwoods
William,
Your mail disturbs me a lot since the best growing of my three Sequoias is at
3.5m from my house. How did you discovered that your Sequoia was damaging your
house foundation and how old and tall was your Sequoia was you discovered
this?
Did you know a way of controlling and even more preventing this disagreable
situation before deciding to remove tree?
Regards.
