    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/53042"&gt;@kiranraob4u&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Not much you can do about your neighbours trees and the suggestions below about moving your trees makes sense to me.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;BUT - this is not going to solve your problem in the longer term. The roots are only going to keep growing and spreading. Without having a lot of additional detail I wanted to suggest that you may want to consider a root barrier along the fence line where the neighbours' trees are. It's a physical barrier that will deter the roots. Root barriers are typically impervious barriers that deter the tree roots from going through it. BUT it does require some work as you need expose the roots and then sever them to put the vertical barrier in. Good longer term option.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I work for Bunnings and we sell root barriers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.bunnings.com.au/jack-600mm-x-5m-recycled-garden-root-barrier_p3320633" target="_blank"&gt;Jack 600mm x 5m Recycled Garden Root Barrier - Bunnings Australia&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Good luck.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="robchin_0-1718060100252.png" style="width: 500px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/96649iEB5A2FC51EA068E3/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="robchin_0-1718060100252.png" alt="robchin_0-1718060100252.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>How to stop neighbour tree roots into my property?</title>
      <link>https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/Garden/How-to-stop-neighbour-tree-roots-into-my-property/m-p/212753#M17355</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;My neighbour has big trees close to the fence 2-5m &amp;amp; roots spreading into my property which is preventing my plants to grow. This is my new house along the fence I planted few fruit trees almost a year now they didn’t grow an inch. When I checked neighbours tree roots engulfed the plants sucking all nutrients. Any suggestions on this matter?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;regards&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello &lt;SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/53042"&gt;@kiranraob4u&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Welcome to the Bunnings, Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your fruit trees.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I suggest moving your fruit trees to another location where their roots can spread out properly. I don't think that the large tree wants to share. Your other option is to build a large-raised garden bed enough to accommodate your fruit trees. If the tree is very mature, I'm afraid cutting the roots will not be effective as it has already established itself.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Let me call on our experienced members &lt;SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/36305"&gt;@Dave-1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;, &lt;SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/9368"&gt;@mich1972&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt; and &lt;SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5214"&gt;@Noelle&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt; for their recommendations. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you need further assistance, please let us know.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/53042"&gt;@kiranraob4u&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Moving your fruit trees now, while they are dormant over wunter, is the best option to give them any chance of survival. They cannot compete successfully with established trees with extensive root systems.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Lift them carefully, trim their roots of necessary and replant them into prepared panting holes well away from the large trees.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
