From YouTube Station kaefka: When your tree falls apart ~ sing about it! Another original garden song from the musical collection "Roots in Austin" (rootsinaustin.blogspot.com) by Kathy Kloba in Austin, Texas.

Oh, yeah... you tell the story. We like our shade, but live in fear of the giant limb over the (cracked) driveway. And how about the (sometimes multiple) leaf and seed-dropping? These trees are nothing if not prolific.
Luckily, we rent.

Thanks for listening and commenting Scowell - we tried to compost some of those seeds and the darned things stayed intact for a couple of years! But the shade is great.... hope they can make it through this horrible summer.

I just bought one last week, we wanted a fast growing shade tree in the middle of our desert.

Thanks for commenting, StewedTomato - if you're in the desert it might do well...you guys get cool at night I think. The hot, humid nights in Central Texas stress the trees badly here.

You should be okay for the first 20 years, tammieadcox! Our timing was kind of off ;-)
