You can plant 3 to 10 feet away from the property line without the permission of your neighbors. Different cities and counties have different rules but generally it is illegal to plant directly on the property line unless your neighbors agree.
no, a neighbor can't plant over a property line, if he or she goes over the line it isn't there property to plant on.
No. A parasite is an animal or plant that lives in or on another animal or plant and gets food or protection from it. For example- mistletoe is a plant that grows in a tree, and sucks nutrients from the tree.
Usually, people who ask this question really want the answer to a different question -- can I trim a tree that encroaches into my land, can my neighbor cut down a tree that is on our mutual property line, can I take down a tree on my neighbor's land that poses a risk to my house? I point this out not to sound like a jerk, but only because the legal answer to "who owns the tree" doesn't usually answer the (real, underlying) question. Where a person plants a tree on his/her property that grows into a neighbor's property, the tree still "belongs to" the person who planted it. When nobody knows who planted a tree, the tree usually (that is, in most states) "belongs to" the neighbor on whose property most of the tree is now located. However, whenever a tree crosses property lines, whether it is the roots or the branches or the trunk that cross the line, the person on each side of the line can pretty much do whatever he/she wants to the tree on his/her side. Think of your property line as a geometric plane that extends up into the sky and down into the ground. If you don't like the branches on your side of the plane, you can cut them, no matter who "owns" the tree. If you don't like the roots on your side of the plane, you can grind them up. As a practical matter, this rule means that whenever one neighbor wants a boundary tree taken down, it will be coming down, because even if the tree-loving neighbor does not agree to have the work done (which is important - it means that most arborists will not agree to do the work), the tree-hating neighbor can still do enough violence to the tree on his/her side of the line that the tree will soon die and need to be removed. If you're in Massachusetts and have a boundary or other real estate question, call the Law Office of David R. Baron in Boston.
Most trees which are trees are trees, also when they're not. Sometimes a tree which is actually a tree but a tree afraid to admit he is a tree is called a busheee.
An oak tree.
Neither. A tree is a living organism, not a property. A tree is composed of millions of chemical substances, each with its own chemical and physical properties.
The width of the cut of your mower will answer your question.
My neighbor's tree has roots that crossed our property line. It is lifting our concrete patio and destroying our fence. What do I do?
She tells him to run to the big tree. The tree is the property line.
You are responsible for the portion on your property and the other guy is responsible for the portion on their property.
These matters are controlled by local zoning laws. Contact the Zoning Office of your municipality or county for this information.

No because it can grow big.
Yes. They can be grown as fans or espaliers close to a wall.
You plant tree one. Then plant tree two. Make a measurement from tree 1 to tree 2. Then draw a circle in the same distance around tree 1 and tree 2. The point where they meet is where you should plant tree 3 (and/or 4)

It is always a question of neighborhood aesthetics. Plant all trees, especially globe willows, barely within your property line and in a place which effectively blocks your neighbors view of everything. Globe willows are fast growing. Your neighbor will move away within five (5) years - taking their yappy dogs and miscreant offspring with them.
