TrickyDick is an unknown quantity at this point
You should also consider that planting a weeping tree that will want its branches arching to the ground is not going top provide shade for your rhodies as much as it will provide them with a tent. Plant an upright, understory tree like a red bud, dogwood, serviceberry, magnolia or something along those lines. I wouldn't worry about the roots.
