I allowed one of these to grow because it was 'pretty' and the honeybees love it. That was before some local guys explained the invasive nature of the tree. I have cut down the tree, the roots of which are huge and growing under a large cement patio. Each root continues to sprout new growth. This tree will keep me busy for a while.
But they are beautiful.
