1240BE25Q0082 Attachment 6 Root Orientation.pdf

Attachment 6 is an illustrated technical diagram depicting various root orientation scenarios for tree planting. The document provides 12 detailed graphical representations showing different planting conditions, ranging from proper tree placement to multiple improper planting methods. Each illustration highlights specific root characteristics and planting errors, such as "L' Roots" (hole shallow), "Jammed Roots" (hole narrow and shallow), "Too Shallow" (roots exposed), and "Planted in Rotten Wood" (roots not in damp mineral soil). The final image demonstrates a "Properly Planted Tree" with ideal root positioning and hole depth. The diagram serves as a visual guide for understanding correct tree planting techniques and potential root-related planting mistakes.
