Birch trees are pretty, yet I've generally grown to hate trees! I like my pool warm and free of blossoms, leaves, pollen, white fluff, acorns, walnuts, pears, blackberries, Prickly seeds.
This shit is the worst
Got a huge one towering over the pool.
I also have a large horse chestnut tree locking the sun, dumping messy blossoms, sharp seeds that stick in your feet, chestnuts and large leaves in the pool. Fun all season round! Oh so fun stepping on this stuff daily
I've been cutting down some dead and dying scrub trees along the river bank on our property, trying to prevent them from falling the wrong way on their own. The 6th one did just that :/ It's now leaning into another tree, all dead branches intertwined with the healthy tree next to it. If it goes the wrong way it will be in the garden. Not sure how I'm going to fix that. 60ft trees aren't easy to push aside.
My favorite tree is the sound of one falling down :p
