I am putting 7 arborvitae plants about 2 feet tall between the concrete patio and a fence in my backyard (total length 22 feet). I have an existing sprinkler pipe with 2 risers and shrub heads running along the same length, in the dirt along the edge of the concrete patio. I have 2 questions:
1) What are the proper heads I need for these arborvitae? Does the entire plant need to be watered or just the roots? 2) I would like to relocate the sprinkler pipe from in front of the plants to the back, along the fence so you can't see the risers and heads. It is easy since the existing pipe is only 1 inch below the surface. Any pros or cons to doing this?- posted
