I would like to get some shade on the west side of my house.  It is a side yard with the block wall 8' from my house.  I planted a Raywood Ash about 3 weeks ago 7' from my house and 1' from the block wall.  Now I am having concerns that the roots may mess up my house foundation 10 years down the road.  What do you think?  Should I move the tree now before it is too late? If so can you give me some names of other trees that would work better in this location?  Thank you.
