i was planting irises in my front courtyard when i heard this popping and splitting sound. little did i know it was half of my neighbor's bradford pear splitting off and over! the tree's root system is on her property, but my home had the benefit of the shade from it's large branches (15-20 year old tree). now that half of it's gone (tree doctor's diagnosis: too dry, couldn't support branches anymore), the front yard looks decidedly lopsided. the rest of the tree is being cut down soon. my neighbor and i are working together on this new "project." any ideas to save it? if i can't, how about what to plant instead (south facing)? if the tree has to go, is it possible we might use the trunk for anything (hollowing it out & planting in it, perhaps?)
help!
