How deep are holly tree roots?
Holly trees typically grow as high as 50 feet. Under ideal conditions their roots can grow up to 20 feet deep, but typically highly tree roots tend to grow wide. However, root structure is always affected by soil, water levels, and quality of oxygen.
How deep do trees roots go?
Tree root systems do not grow very deep. Tree's roots grow shallow and wide. Do not cut them! Tap root? Okay, many conifers have tap roots extending deep into the soil, however they still rely on surface roots for oxygen, moisture, and nutrients. In general, tree roots are close to the surface, extend laterally from the tree (like spokes on a bicycle wheel), and extend far beyond the canopy of the tree. Commonly, roots will extend well beyond 2 to 3 times outside of the drip-line. Roots have been found more than 10 times beyond the distance from the trunk to the canopy. Most people do not understand roots, or trees. This is what the last guy wrote: "Close to double its height and about as least twenty feet in each direction depending on how old the tree is. It depends on the type of tree and the conditions in which it is growing. Trees are like people they are basically lazy so they will only put roots out as far as they have to to supply nutrients and support." Remember, just because you see it on the internet, it is not always true. Tree roots grow where there is an abundance of oxygen, water, and nutreints. Which is where? Where the soil meets the air.
How far in each direction do tree roots grow?
Tree roots typically grow very wide and shallow. How wide do tree roots grow? Most people say tree roots grow to the dripline. In fact, tree roots grow much farther than the dripline, typically 2 to 3 times the distance, sometimes further. All of the roots are important to the tree. Do not cut the roots. If in doubt, hire a Certified Arborist to consult on your project BEFORE getting started. Trees do not heal; they can only compartmentalize decay. So, do not expect to have someone wave a magic wand and sprinkle some chemicals to fix your problem or "save" your tree.

What are traproots?
roots that grow directly down from the trunk of a tree and serves as an anchor. Only present in some species, if the tap root is cut the entire tree can fall quite easily. Taproots are the roots of a plant that are wide and spreading to look for nutrients.

How do you transplant a young cherry-blossom tree?
Dig it up from the ground carefully so the roots are not damaged. Dig another hole that is deep enough and wide enough. Add amendments if needed such as peat or compost. Backfill with existing soil and some new garden soil. Water well. Only do this when the leaves are off.
How deep do pine tree roots grow into the ground?
The important thing to note here is that all trees have root systems that extend horizontally at the soil surface, shallow, and wide, spreading several times wider than the width of the canopy. Most of the roots are found within the top few inches of soil, rarely extending deeper than 12 inches. The further away from the tree, the more shallow the roots are. Most trees start out with some sort of "tap" root. However, most trees tend to "lose" their deep roots as they grow. Conifers, especially pines, are generally an exception. They still have a vast and wide surface root system, but do grow a large tap root, which is esentially a downward extension of the trunk. It tapers quickly. I have dug pine tap roots out of the ground with excavators. At a certain point, it either breaks or you make the decision to cut it. The bulk of it is about 4 to 5 feet down, tapering rather quickly. I have seen tap roots over 12 feet long, tapering to a straw-size. I have had to cut large roots that seemed to never end. I suspect the limitation would hinge on soil type, water levels, oxygen levels, and soil density. I see no reason why a pine tap root wouldn't grow to 20 feet or more if conditions were right. But, remember the important surface roots before you go to trench.
