they are grown all over the place in Texas with little to no
invasiveness.

Do the roots stay pretty well below the surface??

I would assume that prolific means that they hatch a lot of little ones.
They can't be any worse than a Mimosa that a neighbor two doors down has, we
just mow em down as they pop up. It's them dadgum above ground roots that
irritate me. RM ~


I've never seen one with surface roots, but that's not a scientific
answer. As for hatching little ones, they don't produce anything, so
nothing to hatch. There are no nuts, or nutlets or seeds or
discernable flowers. They are fast growing. I bought a slip about 3
years ago and it's over 15 feet tall.
