[quote=Anonymous]The previous owners of our house planted a miniature Japanese maple tree and put giant hostas underneath. The hosta leaves overwhelm the maple at the height of summer (I don’t just mean visually- each hosta plant is about half the size of the maple), and the hosta flowers are at least as tall as the tree itself. I would like to relocate the hostas to a more suitable area, but am unsure whether digging them up could do serious damage to the tree. I’m a horticultural novice, and unsure of how deep I should expect the roots of the hosta plants and maple to be. Any advice?[/quote]
