All I know is my mom talked me into letting her plant a Weeping Willow not too far from the trout pond. (My parents live in an apartment above my garage when they are not in Florida). It's not a problem water wise as I have excess water coming out of the trout pond anyway. Interestingly I can see some pink roots in the trout pond even though the tree is 20 to 25 feet from the pond.

The problem is it's now getting so big it is blocking my way to the pond behind the trout pond vehicle wise even though every year my dad tells me it won't get that big. Dad it's as tall as the house now and house is 2 1/2 stories high! Are you kidding me Dad!

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
