If the neighbor's branches protrude onto your own property, it's often annoying. Find out here when you can and can't cut off the branches.
If you don't have a solitary plot of land, you have to get along with neighbors. This is sometimes a difficult topic, because not every neighbor behaves as it should. Rules must also be observed when planting the garden. For example, how close you can put plants to the fence. There are certain rules that must be adhered to. It can happen that the neighbor keeps these distances when planting, but as the bushes and trees grow larger over the years, it can happen that they protrude over the border onto your own property. What to do in this case?
Better to talk to the neighbor
If these branches and twigs bother you, you may cut them off at the border. Affecting doesn't mean you don't like them. Then you mustn't. However, if this is interfering with the growth of your own plants, if the branches are hanging on your terrace and are struggling for your space, or if you want to set up a climbing frame for the children and the branches are in the way, then cutting off the branches is permissible without further ado. But before that you should probably talk to your neighbors - so that you don't get into trouble.
