A tree has fallen on my garden!
"Janet Tweedy" wrote in message ... I always thought poplars were the worst tree to have near a house as they invariably made for the drains and also caused a lot of trouble with their roots? That's always said but we had two Lombardy poplars only yards from our house and had no problem with the roots. That's just our experience, of course, it doesn't mean that the saying isn't true. One of ours blew down during a 90mph wind years ago. It's roots did spread very far out - but in all directions, they weren't far under the surface. Next door's lawn was uprooted :-( Luckily the branches were caught in the fork of a pear tree at the other side of the garden so we could still get underneath to deal with it.
