[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Imagine being op with a nice tree on her lawn and the neighbour just having roots on his side of the fence. Hello! I would get rid of your roots as well, why are you upset about this? These roots were clearly ugly and or ruining his lawn and he doesn’t even get the benefit of having a tree! [/quote] If the tree’s roots are in the neighbors yard, the tree is close enough that neighbor benefits from the tree too - it cools the air, and cools the neighborhood as a whole. It sucks up run off and prevents wet basements. It feeds the insects that feed the birds. It increases the home values - neighborhoods with old trees have higher home values that neighborhoods with fewer trees. The neighbor gets lots of benefits from OP’s tree, they just don’t recognize it.[/quote]
