How far from the property line trees should be planted will vary from place to place. To determine the rules in your area call your local zoning board. You should also check with your HOA. They often have rules about tree placement as well.

first tell the owner of the the trees that they are damaging your property and you will have to remove them unless they can come up with something better. You can dig them up, but you have to give them back to whom ever owns the property the trees are on - and therefore owns the trees. If you get that. If the owner the complains there is nothing they can do.
Do I have legal right to trim a tree over my fence line?

Can you remove trees planted on the property line?
It depends on whose trees they are, when they were planted, and what purpose they serve. For example, if they were planted long ago and serve to mark the boundary line (with blazes or as described in deeds), then they cannot be removed without mutual consent of the adjacent owners, and in accordance with local laws that relate to surveying and boundary markings. If they are not your trees, and they are not creating any imminent risk of injury or damage, you'd be foolish to remove them without permission of the owner. Your local state laws may determine who has what rights to maintain the trees, whether you are considered "co-owners", and how the liability and costs are to be divided among you.

Can planting be placed right next to a neighbors fence?
If the plants are on your property they may be planted along your neighbors fence. However, climbing plants that will grow over the fence cannot be planted along your neighbors fence. Caveat: Make sure your neighbor has not installed the fence "inside" their property line so it lies a short distance FROM the property line. That is the practice in some areas and is required by the city ordinances in some areas. In that case, the land along the fence would belong to your neighbor. You need to determine where the property line is located and not assume the fence is on the property line.
