so need to plant four largish trees near a newly built wall(not right next to it) and am thinking root deflectors to divert the roots downwards to give better chance of tap root growth and less surface root, anyone know of a decent supplier of these? mainly used for street planting usually,

cheers

What's the purpose of the ribs?

They push the roots down. You get them on proper root battlers usually more pronounced.  I did some monitoring works about 15 years ago and the chap had decided to get there early and crack on. He put the ribs on the outside. He was gutted when I told him.
