I sure do love trees. I've posted a picture of this tree earlier but did not really talk about the tree itself. This is a type of tree widely known as a "Mimosa Tree." The flowers on the tree smell similar to peaches, lychee, or other sweet smelling fruit. Apparently it was used as an ornamental tree and became an invasive species in America. The tree does show off its invasiveness by blocking my escape from the garage with its low hanging branches. This gives me the great pleasure of hitting a branch with the roof of my truck every time I back out. It is "ornamental" though.
