tom dun,

the leaves will look like a maple and the bark like a hickory, it is the tree that will take over most clear cuts if the pines don't get a foot hold first

Ah yes. Gum balls. Love to dull lawn mower blades. Forgot about that nasty side effect they provide as well.

From one Yankee to another, Tom, I hadn't heard of it either. Until I bought a house that had 10 in the front yard and got to clean up all of the *$^%$*&$(% "presents" that it drops all over everything!

Saw a show on HGTV I believe where 1 tree in California had destroyed an entire house, swimming pool, and all the sidewalks. It was going to cost, I believe $200K to remediate. The tree had been cut down for years, but it was still sprouting shoots all around the house. I don't think they get that bad here because of winter, but they are a persistent thing to get rid of. I have cut several down and they always sprout shoots from the stumps. I even had a small one knocked over in the woods and it put roots in the ground from the stalk and started more shooters coming up.
