FIVE REASONS NOT TO PLANT A TREE
I have spent the last two months cleaning debris from my mimosa tree off of my front patio, porch and even my entryway. I love the tree in the summer when it is covered in blooms and hummingbirds are flocking to its sweet nectar, but I have to admit that I curse at it a bit the rest of the year. Why anyone would plant such a messy tree right next to the house is way beyond my understanding.
