With the amount of rock salt in the snowbanks, my lawn will singed 20' back from the curb anyway.... Not one of my clients who have had leaking inside would put the shrubs ahead of the leak.
("Phuck it, Herb. Those are my prize roses.... I'll live with the leak....)
And it's not like you are putting up a ton of product... just enough to relieve the water back up.
Just thought of this, however... the calcium chloride will disintegrate mortar on brick stairs and walkways. Come spring, the portland will be gone and all that will be left between the brick is sand. Just saying....
