while none of the others have. Not even my neighbors trees are starting to get leaves. Why just this one?



Looks like one has died and the tree on the left is barley hanging on. The two up front have greened up nicely.

Some of my neighbors have been greening up too!

And yes I also hate them. I have 3 on each side of my driveway that form a tunnel and makes it god damn pain in the arse to get my big boat in and out. and there is ALWAYS a pile of shite by my back door because of them. But my loves them so they cant go...

must be a Houma thing. Your picture looks familiar.

Mine are greening up now too. I’ve never understood the hate for these trees, as they’re beautiful when in full bloom.
