How invasive are roots of Mahonia Soft Caress

Hello,

I want to plant Mahonia Soft Caress, but that will close to drains, maybe a metre or so. Do you know how invasive it's roots are? Just don't want them to mess with the drain. Thanks

  • @rafuk73 Mahonia Soft Caress is fairly new to cultivation. I am not sure anyone will have grown it long enough to give an answer.

  • Given its mature size, max 1.5 x 1.5m, I would doubt it would cause any damage.
