What happens here

Reflect on the long-term consequences of installing fixed paver borders around growing trees. The video highlights that tree roots continuously expand over time, and any rigid border will eventually be disrupted. This natural growth means paver borders will be repeatedly pushed up, leading to ongoing maintenance, the need for frequent resetting, and potential damage to both the border's aesthetics and the tree's health if roots are restricted.

Goal: Comprehend why paver borders are unsustainable for growing trees.
