Not sure if this would be the correct forum for this, i am also posting it in the new england forum.
We have no landscaping in our backyard, and are new to septic systems. Just wondering with this septic plan- can we plant any trees and shrubs back there or should we just stick with flowers etc? The areas in green is where i would like to plant. Would like to do 2 shrubs against the house and then all along the fence.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
