Verdun, you know I'm a numpty where knowing about plants/trees are concerned, but I've always found that the rooting system is very shallow, even if it spreads a bit. I've had two that have just fallen down when the ground has been really sodden and there's high winds. Dug one up that was growing in the lawn and it wasn't a case of getting through to Australia. I've honestly never found it/them to be a problem. Now, if we want to discuss Sycamore trees, that's a different matter.
My son will love the tree because his Mummy has given it to him.
