Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

Property line maintainence

My neighbor has a chain link fence on our property line. On his side of the fence he has planted a hedge which grows through & over the fence. He says that I am responsible for trimming & removal of the part growing through and over the fence. I think it is his responsability. Am I right or wrong?
