Gardening help?

I have a palm type tree in my garden but its recetly got really big and is pushing against the neighbours fence and he is complaining about it. Is there anyway that I can move it without damaging the tree because I don't paticulally want to get rid of it but rather move it more towards the centre of the garden. Also is there a time of year that is better to move it than others?

Palm trees have a really really deep rooting system, with a tree that size you would have to dig down a long way to to get a good size root ball for it to survive.



you could dig it out a meter down, and get 6 or 7 people to help pull it out and move it to a new location.



once you have you will have to trim off most of the leaves as or it will die. but it will recover after a while.
Reply:The chances are that the roots go under the fence. If you want to move it, you'll need some cooperation from your neighbour, but you may find that he'll help if it gets him what he wants.



You need to dig all the way around the tree so that you leave a big root ball. You may need to take down part of the fence. Dig a big hole where you want the tree to go. Loosen the soil at the bottom of the hole, then flood it. Lift the tree, drop it in the new hole and pack soil around it. You should have enough soil left over to make good the hole where you dug it out from. Now mend your neighbour's fence.
Reply:How tall is the tree?

If you try to dig it out your self its gowing to be a very big job. the three will way about 1000 lb. ether you will have to cut it down and plant a new won ore get a thre mover dolly in there.
Reply:the time to move it is between November 5 and April 14 as the sap has stopped rising but it may be to big to move you can only try good luck
