When you think about trees lining a boulevard you tend to think about elms or ash trees not Banyan trees. As you've seen in a previous posting I mentioned the topic and yet they are way outta place if the situation is looked at more closely. I cannot help but wonder if there is a better alternative to roots taking over sidewalks and further more the ones hanging down to slap you in the face whilst in a sea of people that that's when a plant looks as though it's about to take over the city like in a science fiction flick.
