    My neighbor's jasmine bush is very beautiful, and is taking over our orange tree. It's very special and looks great, but I am worried that the orange tree may not like it. So far, we see no damage, but if it can hurt the orange tree, we would rather trim down the jasmine. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Prune part of it away, as needed, without cutting the whole thing down. If the citrus starts to disappear under the climber, you will know it is time to restore a balance.
