Planting a Tree

Question

Can I plant a small tree in a container that is sunken into the ground, so as to contain the roots?

Answer 1

While you could attempt this feat, it may not be a good idea, as the tree may eventually outgrow the container and require digging up to repot--quite a task for in-ground potted plants.
