The trees that whispered in the evening

Apparently American Wild Plums do not grow in Texas.

:-(

Carolina Sweetshrub, on the other hand, isn't native to here but will grow if transplanted.

Man, I need a yard. No, I need a real garden. I need a fig tree and a blueberry bush and blackberry brambles growing along the back fence. I need tomato vines overthrowing their cages and basil and garlic curling between them. I need collards in rows, and crookneck squash and pumpkins in sprawling mounds.

And I need a Sweetshrub to make potpourri with.

Apropos of nothing, my buddy Badger had an interesting day...

Community garden?

*nods sadly* Are you shopping around for these things? Is a yard at least on the horizon?

How invasive is that sweetshrub likely to be? I have a twitch about bringing in non-native wildlife to any given area. If it's just a bush that will stay where you plant it, that's one thing; but if it's self-seeding, that's another.
