Hi,
I live in Los Angeles near the coast and want to plant a 30 ft border (5 ft wide) with screening trees that will grow over 25-35 ft tall.
I just bought 10 ficus trees in 15gal containers from a local nursery which assured me these would do the trick. They said that they shouldn't be near a house due to invasive roots. They will be 3ft or so from a driveway, but only the end tree will be close to the house (5 ft). So I'm thinking of putting in some sort of a root barrier when planting.
They told me these were Ficus natiras(?) or nerieas(?) but I haven't been able to find anything like that on the web.
Can anyone help me regarding the roots, expected height, actual species name?
Thank you in advance, Ed
Ficus natiras(?) tall screen?
