how do trees planted in the middle of cement parking lots survive and even thrive?

155 views

We’ve all seen trees surrounded by concrete that goes all the way to their trunks and would seem like they would not be able to absorb any water from their roots when there’s nothing but concrete for at least 10 yards or more. Yet they seem to be growing as if they weren’t in the midst of a concrete jungle. Trees in concrete, how do they do it?

Concrete let’s tiny amounts of water through, that little bit reaches the dirt and thus roots.
