We have a beautiful new subdivision in Searcy Arkansas with houses that are the ultimate in high-style. It's called The Dominion and is located right in front of Searcy Country Club.
Money has flowed generously toward developing the site and the landscaping has had lots of thought and preplanning.
To the surprise of all people nearby and those who pass by, however, the type tree planted along the road was sweet gum trees which make sweet gum balls which are worthless for anything except being a nuisance to clean up.
How could they not foresee the grown trees dropping those annoying balls all over the street and having to be swept up continuously?
Well, lots of people were cursing those trees. And look what appears to be happening.
They are dying? Looks like it!
So I'm wondering if cursing is actually an effective way of getting rid of a row of trees that can only grow up cramped and too fruitful.
I hope they don't replace them!!!
P. S. I'll be willing to step on a sticky sweetgum ball if any of you can honestly tell me that you have one of these trees in your yard and you truly love it!!!!!!
