Can You Plant A Globulus Topiary Eugenia On Ends Of Garage Near Sidewalk Or Will The Roots Eventually Damage The Concrete?

Question

Wondering if the roots will get big enough to lift concrete

Answer 1

As long as you give 1 or 2 feet of space between it and the concrete, you will likely never see an issue with it. Any closer, and over time it could be lifted by the larger roots near the surface. This would take a very long time, though.
