Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas

Galveston County Texas. Neighbor behind me has massive amounts of bamboo and other tall plants and trees that are coming up under my fence and over my fence. They state by Texas state law I am responsible for what comes over on my side but I cannot damage their plants and that if their plants knock my fence over then it is my fault for not trimming my side.
