Previous homeowner planted one in my front yard. I guess it was planted for the Fall colors and fast growth. I cut it down over 3 years ago and I still get seedlings popping up around my yard.

Very prolific around our rivers and large creeks. Not sure what affect it will have long term.

But they are a very large providers of nectar for honeybees across the Southern US. Brought to the US by Benjamin Franklin.
