This large goldenrain tree seedling is hiding between the star jasmine plant and the rue (front). Can you spot it? This one is bigger than the other one in Photo 7. That’s because it grew while it was hiding. It was harder to get out than the smaller one.
So although during some seasons the tree is beautiful, in winter and early spring I love to hate it. It turns my yard into a potential forest of its progeny. Sometimes I miss them until they are too large to get out by the roots and they have to be cut out from the middle of the plant they were hiding under while they grew. This most often turns out to be one of the neighboring oleander bushes, which you can see in Photo 2
Is there a tree you love to hate?
Same here that I do not hate anyone or any tree even if I disagree with their viewpoints.
Rex, God hates bare ground. He made his plants to be fruitful and multiply, and they do.
We have a hedgerow that is that way. It is close to the garden and it produces thousands of seeds, many of which come up in the garden.
I don’t really love to hate them. I just don’t like to clean up after this one.
I do not know of any trees that I love to hate.
I don’t love to hate any tree, but sometimes I’m not fond of some particular trees.
