Willow Tree
I thought I would put a post out and see if anyone can help us. Our neighbour has approached us about our willow tree in the backyard. The previous owners of our place planted the tree close to the fence and it has grown to be a big one. The problem is that willow trees are known to have long roots and it seem that our tree's roots are now in the neighbour's yard and approaching their house. They have asked if we can cut it down. They were very nice about this and have offered to take down the tree for us and buy us a new tree to replace it. As nice of an offer, we won't let them buy us a new tree. If the roots are on their side, I can only imagine what is under our grass. Let's hope the roots are not causing havoc with our pipes, etc. So my question is... What type of tree would look nice in that area?????

Let them buy you a new tree!!!!!
Trees aren't very expensive so it won't put them out much money.
They have some really pretty ones at Devan Nurseries.
There's a gorgeous one there...can't recall the name but it's a brilliant yellow in fall.
They are between $30-$50.
I think you should check out some of the small pink or white dogwood trees. Van has so many and they are soooo beutiful!
I also would say a White Dogwood!!
