Building a Pond Under the Tree Drip Line - Problem?
« on: September 25, 2007, 04:18:38 PM »


Still planning my enlargement.

The new are a would expand about 3' into the drip line under my live oak tree.  The people at the pond store say that you needn't worry about roots working into / through my liner, because roots go seeking water, and when they hit the liner, they have no idea there is water on the other side.

Does that sound right, or am I heading for Leak City? 

Also, what's a good way to cut around sizeable roots I might encounter while digging?

I had the same situation being under an oak tree and encountered only a few small (1" diameter) roots. Oak tree roots go deep rather than running closer to the surface so unless you're quite close to the trunk you are unlikely to encounter large roots. But that being said there are no guarantees with Mother Nature. As you pointed out they do seek water and depending on location (low spot, downspout) you may find more roots than you bargained for. A good axe will handle them. Just ensure that the cut ends are well back from the surface of the liner and use good underlay such as geotex fabric. I do not recommend carpet & newspaper as they are at best, temporary and do not provide long term protection.

Good luck! ....Garry

I'd be more concerned with falling leaves and debris.

I have my pond well under the hard maple tree.

Occasionally, I will have small debri fall into the filter,stream, or pond but it is easily picked up.
In the fall, I just cover the pond with netting for leaves.  I love it as part of the main pond and bio filters are in shade during the hottest part of the day.  This has really helped with keeping the water cooler in the summer.

A tree drip line can be an attractive addition to a garden. They are made of tubing that is connected to a drip system. The tubing is connected around the trunk of the tree, about two feet from the ground. Drip lines help distribute water evenly around the tree, and they also help prevent the bark from splitting. If you want the best tree services so you may go to a Tree Specialist for bark from splitting.

Navigating through tough times can be overwhelming, but knowing there are counseling services in West London provides a sense of relief. Your commitment to providing support is evident, and I'm grateful for that.
