Probably 18" to the bottom, which is where the roots entered. Possibly
a little less. It was only about 3' from a Chinese elm, which most
likely made the contribution.

When I put any joint in that corrugaed stuff somewhere near plants I
surround it with some concrete. Otherwise you do get this. Plants
are good at finding water since that's what they do for a living :-)

Technically speaking, plants don't "find" water, they just make use of
the water they stumble across. Roots don't explore, they exploit.

Would you say that ants "find" water? Plants aren't all that much different
(in this way) than a colony of ants.
