What drying runs into in Plantation
Serving Plantation and the surrounding area, including Plantation Park, Jacaranda.
Local housing stock
67 percent of Plantation's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1984, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1984 with two thirds of the stock older, the neighborhoods were planted with large ficus as street and hedge trees, and those roots run shallow and far in search of water rather than going down.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 67.87 inches, 9.22 of them in September, against a warm season that peaks at 83.3 degrees in August; rain recorded at PLANTATION 3.4 E 3.5 miles away and temperatures at FT LAUDERDALE 4.1 miles away. September is the wettest month at 9.22 inches of a 68-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so growth never stops; roots that would be dormant half the year somewhere colder are working every month here.
How water losses tend to end in Plantation
- Roots running shallow and far, so a tree affects ground well beyond its canopy
- Concrete lifted rather than cracked, so slabs, walks and drives are displaced as pieces
- Laterals and irrigation lines invaded, so the tree finds the water it is looking for
