I have a Tree object linking to itself via a parent id and when I set
the child relationship to cascade.

But when I delete the parent object (with children), I get the following error:

com.webobjects.eoaccess.EOGeneralAdaptorException: EvaluateExpression
failed: : Next exception:SQL State:23000 -- error code: 547 -- msg:
The DELETE statement conflicted with the SAME TABLE REFERENCE
constraint "Tree_parent_FK". The conflict occurred in database
"TreeDatabase", table "dbo.Tree", column 'parentID'.

It looks like the cascade isn't working.

The cascade is working but the ordering is wrong. SQL Server can't handle deferred constraints. The easiest solution is to drop the FK constraint. The other solution is to order the delete operations and that is NOT easily done.
