Talk to the Neighbor ...or move the garden. This^^^^^ Geeze, it seems being neighborly is a lost art.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Was that link a joke LAtrapper? Or just an "oops"?

Buy a junk truck strong enough to cause mortal damage to tree when backed into. Modify brakes on truck so they don't work well. Back truck up to garden at an unsafe overconfident speed. Brace for impact, call insurance company.
For added effect do it while your garden is planted and doing well so you can show some disappointment with what happened. Or grow a giant pumpkin in the area of the tree so you would have an excuse for bringing a big truck into the area at the end of growing season. this is a solid idea.

Be sure to offer to get him another tree, like an Ash or something, or fruit tree, and plant it as a replacement. A lil farther off the property line of course. Trees are cheap.

She is a crotchety old gal...won't allow anything that might benefit someone else. She has rhubarb plants, she doesn't use it, but won't let anybody else have any either. Her plants. Her choice. She also has iris growing all over that would benefit by being thinned out but again, she says they're just fine. Ain't nobody gonna get anything of hers.
Life ain't supposed to be easy.

LAtrapper, although your link doesn't bring up the previous thread, I also remember it. It got pretty much the same recommendations from copper hails to Roundup to talk to the neighbor. Probably posted by the same person but I don't know for sure. New link- How to Kill a Bradford Pear
