Thought these were worth posting to show what in ground "dry land" BC can look like. These are planted along a road that leads through a local Army post. They've been here for about 10 years now. They're planted on a slope that drains extremely well. They haven't developed knees, but they have developed pretty decent taper and fluting over the time they were planted. I didn't dig down to expose the nebari, but from what is visible, these probably have pretty nice bases.
I think these were intended to be planted about a 1/4 mile further down the road, in an area that stays kind of swampy. That area along the road was planted with sweet gum which aren't doing nearly as well as they should--probably because of the poor drainage. Since the road is on an Army installation, it is the Army that planned and executed the planting project. Army project planning and execution can sometimes be a little inefficient.
