Most gardeners imagine roots diving straight down like an upside-down tree.
But that’s not how most plants actually grow.
In this video, we break down the science behind lateral root growth and the “oxygen zone” — the biologically active upper layer of soil where roots truly thrive.
You’ll learn:
• Why roots expand sideways before they grow deep
• How oxygen availability shapes root structure
• Why most absorbing roots live in the top 18 inches
• Why trees often extend roots 1.5x beyond the canopy
• The correct way to dig a planting hole
• How watering habits change root architecture
If you’ve ever transplanted a shrub, planted a tree, or wondered why some plants fail after installation — this will change how you garden forever.
At The Celtic Farm, we believe strong gardens begin below ground.
