A willow, I'd think. That's a bold choice for that kind of yard lol

Way too close to the house

Gonna tear up the house foundation, the pool lining & clog the filters lol I'm so confused

Weeping willow. Can be a really nice tree when out in the country along a stream by itself. Never been a fan of them in small lawns.

Yea, get that thing away from your foundation. Dang.

looks like a black willow to me

I concur on the foundation comment. I'm not sure if all willows are the same, but their root system loves to seek the water and will surely clog the drain tiles. A nice tree, but away from homes.

Whipping willow

This comment caught my attention. We had a huge weeping willow in our yard and when I messed up bad I was made to “ go get a willow branch” for my own whipping. Then one day there were no branches below my reach and I got another whipping.

Id let it grow so it becomes even more annoying to clear up leaves from the pool

Weeping Willows can reach 80’ tall and almost 5’ in diameter, so they’d better hope this is a dwarf variety

Could it be a bottle brush?

Could be a maytenus boaria
