If the root system could be saved that is what we would have done. But it right on top of our septic system and we are guessings the roots have blocked the fields. Some one must have not knows when it was planted. We have had to pump the tank 3 times in the past 6 months...so hence that is why the tree is coming down today. From what I have read it loves to go for water and warns not to be planted within 100 feet of a septic field:) Thanks going to go and take cuttings right now...Blessings Cindy
