will the root structure of a 3 foot tall sago palm damage my garage wall if planted close

Question

We want to transplant our sago palms from the pots to the ground by our garage - will the roots damage the bottom of the garage wall.  Need to do this asap as it's getting too hot here in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, over 100 right now, 110 degrees up to 117 in July/August, can't wait much longer or plants will die after transplanting.

Answer 1

You should wait until fall or late fall whenever your weather is cooler...so that it does not go into shock with the heat..................they get pretty big, I would not plant that near a wall or near a septic system or drain field.
