This is an EXECLLENT presentation EXCEPT you missed the most important thing against this awful plant (at least to environmentalists like me!) and that is it feeds no one, no caterpillars, and thus no animals. It further smothers out natives that would contribute to a healthy ecosystem (you did mention this regarding those chemicals that inhibit other growth). Thank you for this great info and thanks KZbin for keeping this info out there.

I got one two yards down that must be 6 stories tall. My other, immediate neighbor let one get started from a seed from that tree. She finally let me cut it down and poison the stump in the fall. I let the inevitable suckers grow until they were a foot or so, then cut and poisoned all of them too. It did the job. Early fall is the best time because all the energy is getting sucked back into the roots. I hate using poison for anything, but it is a necessary in this case.

Thank you so much for the video! ❤️🤩As a kid growing up I thought I knew everything there was to know about Stinky Trees except for their proper name: Tree of Heaven. I have memories of my sister and I having to come in and wash up because we would play among these smelly trees The rancid smell remind us of yesteryear. They were our stallions when we played cowboys, our swords and daggers when we were in a fight. (Lol against the neighbor boys) They are great for mud pie making and mud soup recipes. (yes real mud! We are talking kid days here 😊) If your younger brother ever needed a boost of self esteem, you can always tell him use his super strength to pull a young tree out of the ground. 🦸 Usually they come up really easy you can almost pull them out with one hand depending on the size. It feels so satisfying.👍 Our cousins used taller sticks as poles for a teepee. In more practical uses we roasted marshmallows, and they were a source of fire wood. We have had those trees around our house forever... until a drought came and killed some massive trees that were over 30 years old (also just about every other tree on the property...!) The dead trees provided fire wood and kindling that we used for 2 winters. It has been at least 2 years since the drought and doesn't look like the trees will recover. Kinda sad 😔 I had no idea they were such a problem! 😱 But I can see why others would not have such fond memories of them as we do. It is good to FINALLY know what this plant/tree is called!!!

I am always curious when something or someone is vilified. There are apparently many good qualities of the Tree of Heaven, but the benefits would challenge pharmaceutical company profits - and lumber companies. The casual dismissal of any good qualities of this tree are suspect to me. I think it might be good to study the tree further than this video. :) I like your story of the fun you had with your Trees of Heaven. I am thinking this might be what comes up between the cracks between the concrete of the sunroom and the outside patio - I clear the little 'starts' every year. But now I might let one grow into a bush, just to study it. Smelly, hmm??? haha... The best medicines can be rather unpleasant, so they chase away the germs or parasites or whatever it is that is making us ill. :) This is a very good rundown of the benefits of the tree - you will be heartened, I believe, to know them: www.healthbenefitstimes.com/tree-of-heaven/

It took two months, but it's dead! Not good with a hatchet, so I drilled spaced holes in the bark at a downward slant the then dripped the herbicide into the holes. The upper new growth died first and then the rest of the tree and working out to the suckers. Sprayed the suckers and then took down the tree. Started in early August and into October. Before this, I had dug up suckers down to the ball or the root. This only encouraged it to grow more suckers, even in the same place. Thank you so much for this method. It works!

This tree is the preferred host of the Spotted Lantern Fly. The Berks County, Pennsylvania invasion of SLF feeds very heavily on these trees, with little relief in sight. One control measure is to eliminate female trees, reduce male trees and treat the remaining males with a systemic insecticide using the tree as a bait insecticide station.

I've always noticed this tree as a kid, I called it, "the weed tree." It has a smell that it gives off. Everyone knows this tree. It's like a weed and it grows pervasively and fast and everywhere. It will grow out the side of a building. Usually when you see it in old abandoned buildings and you see branches up in the cornices etc.. It's most likely that weed tree, "the Tree of Heaven."

Lived and moved from a house that had just 1 large tree of heaven. It was never ending trying to keep up with hacking down all of the suckers. After any good rain there were dozens, and if left unsnipped they would grow to 3 feet in a month or 2. I hate this tree and all the invasives like it. So many invasive plants are truly scary when first learning and witnessing the shear destruction and cost they inflict. Really sad.

@@sherryabbotbrooks3132 -- I sprayed the suckers with a systemic herbicide that contains the active ingredient "triclopyr". Other herbicides (for example, "Roundup") kill only the parts of the plants on which the spray lands, so the herbicide doesn't kill the roots of the plants. A "systemic" herbicide reaches and poisons all parts of the plant. In the USA the "Ortho" company sells an herbicide that's intended to kill poison ivy (and "Poison Ivy" appears in large red letters on the label); that's what you want. Also, you don't want the pre-diluted form in a spray bottle; you want the concentrated form. I used a plastic spray tank to apply the herbicide, and I recommend that you use a tank as well. The instructions recommend adding 4 fluid ounces (118 ml) of concentrate to 1 gallon (3.78 litres) of water. However, the tree of heaven is tough, so I used 6 fluid ounces (177 ml) per gallon of water. Also, don't apply a dainty, light spraying; give the suckers a thorough spraying. (Triclopyr won't kill grass, but it will kill flowers; so be careful when spraying.) Triclopyr spreads slowly through the plants: For about 18 to 21 days after you've sprayed the suckers, they will appear to be completely unaffected. You'll think that the herbicide is ineffective and that you've wasted your time, money, and effort. However, suddenly after 18 to 21 days, all of the suckers will wilt and start to die. (It's quite impressive.) A few suckers may sprout after the first batch dies, so be prepared to spray them as well. I cared for my parents during their last years, so I have an inkling of your situation. God bless you.

Where we live, about 45- 60 minutes away from the mountains and the dry deserts, there are few native species of trees around here, except perhaps for native sycamores or willows and they grow mostly near water, not in urban inner city areas. Nothing else except grass, dandelions and small weeds will grow here..... I don't hate any trees (as someone else has said), here summers are excessively hot, and especially now that we're in the middle of a severe drought, we need more trees. They provide much needed shade and coolness in the summer months, (our home would be that much hotter in the summer, were it not for the many trees we have in our front and back yards, some of which are tree of heaven), provide places for local bird species, and local stray cats for shade during the summer as well as places to hide (and another reason people hate them because they hate stray cats). We have no local "lumber industry" here and I notice most of the groups that made this video film possible (i.e. USDA, US Fish and Wildlife, etc.), all have money driven agendas that support companies and groups that I do not necessarily support or feel the need to listen to...... We cut back and trim, as our local city ordinances demand, but we will not cut down or kill our few trees here because we're poor and can't afford commercially grown trees to plant, and all the trees we have, including the notorious Tree of Heaven, were not planted by us, but a 'gift' as I see it....from Heaven. (if you live in some other part of the country where they are genuinely 'invasive' and interfering with your local native species of trees or plants....Fine, I can understand and respect your need to be rid of them).
@metta1089 жыл бұрын
First- Our local birds use all our trees- even the "Tree of Heaven", Second- I think it depends on where you happen to be and I've already said a little of my area, which as I said is in a *severe drought*, and this tree that you and so many hate is one of the few that grow naturally on their own, not sycamores, nor other native trees as a rule, although ours grow symbiotically with our local native trees. Third- we did not plant them, God, the angels or "mother nature" simply did....we have no money to either buy other 'alternatives' such as cottonwoods, or willows, although I love those trees very much as well, and in a severe drought such as ours with no budget for trees just trying to survive in our hard hit area during this recession, it's not an option..... If you are fortunate enough to live somewhere where you have no drought, money and jobs are plentiful and you can afford to plant nice trees for shade or whatever- good for you...... It doesn't apply to us so we will just keep our trees- native or otherwise, thanks. ;)

metta108 beautifull thoghts.It is a verry invasive tree but its verry valuable because the wood its good and it fixes nitrogen for otther plants to grow ,in dessert it reduces the evaporation of the water from soil thats beneficial to otther plants as well (not all the otther plants are affected by its toxins).The wood its also verry good and looks like mahogany( its actually precious wood )but it smells bad when its cut but the smell gets away as the wood dryes.A lot of the invasive species thrive in an attempt to save the land from humans like the much hated big head chinese carp that its beneficial because he eats all the planctonic algae that bloom heavily in lakes as a result of increase in phosphates and nitrates from detergents and sewage pipes.Ussualy the soo called ,,enviroment protectors,, that likes to kill ,,allien,, fish and plants ,dont know nothing about ecosystems and i bet that a lot of them are even climate change denyers or flat earthers.

Someone has videos about making deserts into lush gardens... very inspiring. The ground needs to be covered so it can soften enough to accept seeds & plants. As my sister-in-law, a biologist, once said, "We get a lot of rain in Austin; we have a lot of trees." Any tree is going to draw water from the ground and it will evaporate into the air, making clouds & rain & moisture for plants. Straw is also good for reclaiming garden space. Deserts need trees. People need trees. Trees provide us with oxygen. There is a movement to destroy all trees - ostensibly to 'save the planet from global warming' - where is the science in that? hahahaha... Everything has been turned upside down.

I thinned what I could but some are already staying put. I burned what I could to kill any other seeds but know I need to spray to get a handle on the issue. I am willing to kill everything to eliminate the TOH, but can't find literature on how long to abandon the site. Do I tarp or solarize? Mother nature covers herself so...I need a plan.

It was the biggest and the most impressive Heaven of tree he saw, and yet he kills it before our eyes to demonstrate how to do it. He could have least spared that one. It is still a tree, that provides oxygen and shade and is not bad looking at all!

William Girard you obviously have know idea what you are saying and are simply an ignorant tree hugger. These trees are bad for the local native environment. Horrible actually

Nothing wrong with being a “tree hugger”.... in a world where global warming and greenhouse effect is the norm, drought is common place, we don’t need to be ashamed of caring for trees. I’m not. There are plenty of worse things to be than a “tree hugger”. I agree with William completely! Kudos!!

@@bluetigerlozano59 'I agree with William completely' Then you're a fucking idiot. these trees are a blight. They are super invasive and worse, they poison the ground in which they grow so no other trees but themselves can flourish.

@@bluetigerlozano59 I think you're agreeing for the wrong reasons. I agree that we need to care for trees in general, but 1.) this isn't a tree so much as 2.) a dangerous and invasive species of weed.

You understand that this video is produced by a state conservation organization? They look like they've done their research, too, instead of just being sentimental about any old weed. Of course he killed the biggest one, as it was the one that causes the most damage to the rest of the area.

I had a house in a poor section of town and it had these on both side property lines. Tried injecting roundup I think, copper nails, and girdeling the trun,k Eventually had to cut them down and dig up the roots. A real pain. I had a landscape architect friend that called it the James Dean tree. It pops up in poor areas, run down rentals, vacant lots, abandoned gas stations and the like. Very hard to get rid of. Not strong, bad firewood. A big effing weed.

We have one in our backyard. We made the mistake of cutting it down twice. The first time it grew back to its full size within a couple months. Now we are waiting for it to grow back so we can properly kill it.
