I HATE!!!!! Sumac trees

[winoweenie]

If ever there was an absolutely useless, dirty, messy piece of landscaping product this sucker has to be at the top. The developer of our subdivision used them as they're fast growing and on first glance attractive. This African BUSH, yeppo bush, Grows to prolific heigths in our desert climate but when we get a teeny bit of rain the limbs break off like candy canes at a 2-year-olds Xmas party. We had a whole 1/4" of moisture last nite and whenced I went out for the morning paper this AM our whole driveway was blocked by this huge limb. Thank goodness I'm current on our yard peoples bills as they came out at daylight and are clearing this mess up as I type. Good thing too as CB has a beauty appointment(not Needed) at 900 and we couldn't get a scooter outa' the drive they way it wuz!!GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. ww
