Is there a tree that just grinds your gears? Puts a bee in your bonnet? If so, perhaps you live in North America and have Siberian elms.
Originally brought to North America in the 1800s, and gaining much popularity as American elms died off en masse from Dutch elm disease, these arboreal rapscallions turned out to be pretty invasive, and spread like the Dickens. Fortunately, they're also edible, and even kind of tasty.
*Disclaimer: As is sometimes necessary to say on the internet, the rant at the start of the video is partially facetious. These are egregiously invasive in some areas, but in the right place, these are a great plant.
Plants in this video:
Siberian Elm (Ulmus pumila)
Family: Ulmaceae (Elm family)
Other names*: Litteleaf Elm, Dwarf Elm, Asiatic Elm, 비술나무 (Bisulnamu), 西伯利亞榆 (Xībólìyǎ yú), 钱榆 (Qián yú)
*sometimes called Chinese elm, though this can lead to confusion with Ulmus parvifolia, which more commonly goes by that name.
