I used to own a house that had 3 of these nasty hugh trees. In the Summer it was the "cottom" flying everywhere and covering the Air Conditioner Condenser fins so I have to enclose it in a fine screen and rinse it once a week. Them later in the season it was dropping leaves for months so I did have to buy me a leaves blower/shredder and I would spend hours bagging and raking shreeded leaves. I was so happy when I sold that house and moved away from that mess. Sometimes I would just pile the leaves along the street and drive over them to break them up and the hope for them to blow away with the winds ( no luck with that either)!
At the new house one neighbor one block away had one of those trees and the leaves still were able to reach my lawn. Finally, they cut it down
They are very messy and bad wood in a storm. They break into pieces all over in our regular "hurricane size" storms!
