I've seen shared hedges and trees bring people together if they bring a positive attitude into it. But yes if their thinking is stinking then any trifle is a battleground. "Private property rights" trigger some weird aggression over here too.
Liz, it sounds like the vine is a bigger problem than the tree right now. By using strings and trellises, vines can be useful screen with no cost other than a snip now and then.
Can you post a picture? |
Treeseer, I wouldn't have minded the vine if it was on a trellis rather than attached to old mortar, and they were keeping it under control.
Here is a pic of it: Had trouble working out how to add attachment. Hope this works
