New photos , old tree.

I can not resist taking photos of this tree, same as last year blog. "Princess Tree (or Empress Tree) is a native plant of China that was introduced into the U.S. in the mid 1800’s. Is more commonly seen along roadsides and disturbed sites throughout our region. Although still planted as an ornamental tree and used for reclamation of mine sites, it is considered an invasive species." Mine grows near the dumpster at the office.
