Birds nest spruce near tulip poplar?

I would like to plant a birds nest spruce about 12 feet from a large tulip poplar. The sight is quite sunny, but I wonder about root competition. The poplar roots appear to be deeper, mostly below 18". Are the birds nest spruce's roots shallow enough to not be competing with the larger tree?
