Thank you for your inquiry. If you're referring to the low red tree to the front right, that is a Japanese lace-leaf red maple. Acer palmatum 'Bloodgood'

What’s looking good in your garden?

Hi Sonia. It’s the plant with a name that I can never spell...but I’ll have a go.... tatrapanax papyfirus ‘Rex’ ???? Chinese rice paper plant. Or aka The Triffid! That’s easier to remember. 😉. Apparently they can send out suckers from the roots several meters away so my neighbours might get a few babies in years to come. Can’t argue tho, it’s a fab jungly looking plant. Here’s the proud mum!

Trees along boundary - should they be the same type or not?

Hi Gabby, I've chosen trees that will be low maintenance. The Acer silhouette is a narrow tree and grows to about 4 metres which is enough to provide screening without spreading or being too over-powering. I'm not sure about the Arbutus, I think it is going to be a few years before I have to think about pruning but I'm hoping it will grow upwards rather than outwards. If it does need pruning I'll speak to my neighbours and offer to cut their side of it. The other thing I considered was the benefits of evergreen trees, not only do they provide privacy all year round but they also won't cause alot of additional trips to the recycling centre in autumn to dispose of the leaves.

Large and tall trees - house purchase
Q
Comments (0)
I am in the process of buying a house which has a couple of large and very tall trees at the front of the property - probably about roughly 5m and 10m from the house. There's also a third nearby in a neighbours garden. I have asked our conveyancing solicitor to explore this further and am considering having a tree survey carried out to assess whether they pose any hazard to the property or inhabitants. I've also read that if a tree which you own damages somebody else's property or even endangers somebody then the owner is potentially liable. Has anybody else experienced a similar situation? What steps did you take to protect yourselves and others? Also, from a resale perspective would large and tall trees in front of a house put you off if you were a potential buyer? We will be having a full survey to assess any damage from roots. I'm also going to phone our insurance company. The mortgage company had no issue with it but that may be because the lending amount is relatively low so their element of the investment is probably safe. I have checked for TPOs and the one nearest to the property isn't protected but that's not really relevant as I have no wish to remove any of them, I just want peace of mind really that my family, others and our investment are all safe. Any guidance, insight or thoughts would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!
