(Prunus× yedoensis). Trees were transplanted with their root flares at grade, 15 cm (6 in)
below grade, or 31 cm (12 in) below grade. Deep planting reduced the survival of Yoshino …

Landscape trees are frequently planted with their root collars below grade, and it has been
suggested that such deep planting predisposes trees to transplant failure and girdling root

on the health, survival, and root development of two popular landscape trees, red maple
(Acer rubrum) andYoshino'cherry (Prunus× yedoensis). Trees were transplanted with their
