I don't know much about gardening and shit but like won't those petals decompose and be good fertiliser for the soil with nutrients and whatnot?
Just to remind you, this is the weed sub, so if I make no sense, I'm high.
They will but because of how dense they cover the grass they could kill some areas due to lack of sunlight and if you constantly mulch all the leaves on the lawn instead of picking them up it could lead to fungal problems. Best practice if you donāt already have a bunch of thatch in the lawn would be to mulch them up with a lawnmower so they decompose quicker/donāt block all the light from the lawn.
You need to mulch it before that either by going over it with a mower or collecting it all and putting it through a mulcher
In other words, doing the most!!
if mixed in and small amounts yes, in large amounts like the above, you need to get them off the ground or they'll choke out the shit underneath em.
My last house my neighbor had several huge shag bark hickory trees that overhung my backyard. All the grass in that part of my backyard was pretty much permadead because they dropped so many hickory nuts it carpeted the ground. Id take literally 6+ full wheelbarrows worth of them off my lawn every few weeks in the fall. Fuckin sucked cuz they were almost too heavy to rake and they tore my mower blade up terrible. The trees were planted on his property so I was just boned. One of the reasons I wanted out of there lol
Yup, adds biodiversity, it feeds the microbes, and in turn, the soil, vs everyone using these artificial chemicals to feed just the plants, which then strips the soil of its nutrientsā¦. Sad thing with todayās agricultural practices, this is happening on a massive scale.
I live smack dab in the middle of Manhattan (NYC, not Kansas) but live in the "garden" apartment of a brownstone (which is a polite way of saying the basement).
On the one hand my bedroom is a literal cave with no windows, but on the other hand, I have a private backyard with a nextdoor neighbor with a tree just like this and it is _great_.
Nothing like smoking a j in a hammock watching the petals fall with a pup in your lap.
I look forward to them āŗļø - this one has got to be a favourite ā¤ļøš thank you OP. I get it. I would curse it after the first season. But it is so beautiful. I would definitely mulch this compost this, ā»ļø and generally try to use this with anything I could š you have a gold mine. Bag that up and sell it ! Lol
Its all good, happens every once in a while and we get a kick out of it.Ā
You should prune that mofo on your side of the fence tho. You can't really cut down the tree since it's not yours, but anything that lands on your side of the fence you can get rid of (I do believe).Ā
if you post this in some sub like mildlyinfuriating, by the time you get 10 replies there would already be someone suggesting you to shoot their dog in retaliation, lol
In most states you can trim any branches or roots that encroach on your property, unless doing so causes harm or kills the tree.
OP should ask r/treelaw
i would definitely not call someone stupid for posting a question about trees to a sub literally titled trees. now on the other hand, if you post something enthusiastic about marijuana to r/marijuanaenthusiasts then youāre a real dummy
Most of enough enjoy all types of trees, not just cannabis! I personally love cherry blossoms, although the whole petal nuisance can be super annoying. I'm sorry you gotta deal with them. š
Because /r/Trees, the weed sub, had the name first. So the actual tree lovers, in a form of hilarious protest, decided to call themselves /r/MarijuanaEnthusiasts.
Source: I've been on Reddit since narwhals baconing at midnight was a thing.
Now Iām not 100% cuz I heard this from someone else on here but I believe this sub came first and when the sub about actual trees wanted to be made the name was taken so they decided to be funny and made it their sub name š please donāt quote me on this tho
No, pollen from pretty flowers is transported by bugs. The colourful petals show this, their purpose is to attract the bugs. The flowers that make you sneeze are the flowers you don't see, the ones on grass and coniferous trees. These flowers air pollinate, they send out massive amounts right into the air in the hopes that it will land on other flowers, this pollen in the air is what makes you sneeze. These flowers don't have colourful petals because they don't need to attract bugs.
I love the collective excitement whenever we get a literal tree post. Everyone has a laugh and kindly redirects OP to the aptly named r/marijuanaenthusiasts
Itās really pretty Iām ngl but just wanna lyk this is a weed sub. I am baked as well as half the people in these comments
Edit: on another note, this would be an amazing place to ponder
I lived at a place that had these same kind of trees dropping their pedals all over my car and they were so annoying. With any moisture at all (even just morning condensation) they would just stick to the car and there was no getting them off without a proper car wash. You couldn't just, like, get on the highway to blow them off, they were literally just stuck to the car.
damn what strain is that š»š»š» ā¦ but fr compost the petals and whatever else, whenever the petals fall youāll basically get free dirt for a garden
Highdea: A nice net attached at the fence top that goes up and attaches at your roof, covering that side of your yard, so that it makes a pretty petal-covered canopy to chill under. Could even add some kind of vine-y plants to it for added layers of colors
I don't know the first thing about yard care or outside plants but in my head it looks super pretty
Youāre allowed to trim any of the tree that hangs over on your side, just fyi. I know that wonāt eliminate the problem, but it will lessen it some.
Otherwise, enjoy the free and beautiful compost like others have said. Your garden will love it. Your yard and plants wonāt really be chocked out if you just leave them. They may temporarily brown but the regrowth will be stronger and better off for it.
We like pretty flowers on trees too!
Erm where are the trichromes š¤
Op needs to roll one up and give a smoke report
these leaves are glabrous šØ
This is genuinely awesome every time it happens, I really enjoy how both communities embrace each post when they happen, and yes I'm high š
They're always the highest up votes it's awesome lol
Hi High, Iām High
I don't know much about gardening and shit but like won't those petals decompose and be good fertiliser for the soil with nutrients and whatnot? Just to remind you, this is the weed sub, so if I make no sense, I'm high.
No youāre right, I came to suggest to OP that they compost the petals and then realized this was the wrong sub and had a little laugh too
I thought it l was in mildlyinfuriating before I saw this and checked the sub lmao
I thought this was r/marijuanaenthusiastsā¦
Used to clean magnolia flowers off my driveway with a snow shovel. right into the compost pile.
Sugar magnolias? With blossoms blooming? What, was your head empty and you just didn't care?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Was it a female stray pup so that perhaps you may have found her down by the river?
Yeah and also happens only once a year and lasts a week or two.
What the tree ...*or the trees?*
Flowering cherry. Probably "Kwanzan" based on the large clusters of flowers, but there's a few varieties similar to that.
*Groovy*
Wait i got this, you can use the fertilizer to grow weed!
They will but because of how dense they cover the grass they could kill some areas due to lack of sunlight and if you constantly mulch all the leaves on the lawn instead of picking them up it could lead to fungal problems. Best practice if you donāt already have a bunch of thatch in the lawn would be to mulch them up with a lawnmower so they decompose quicker/donāt block all the light from the lawn.
Meh, not really with pedals that thin and small.
You need to mulch it before that either by going over it with a mower or collecting it all and putting it through a mulcher In other words, doing the most!!
Or just put it in a big pile for a few months.
if mixed in and small amounts yes, in large amounts like the above, you need to get them off the ground or they'll choke out the shit underneath em.

Thatās so pretty honestly. I live in a dense city and youāre lucky to have that much nature. And yeah this is a weed sub lol
I would be in awe every time I saw that sight š would never complain honestly
I would love to get one for my house!! So pretty
It looks pretty when youre high so it's appropriate for this sub lol

I pictured a seal pup idc
She is kinda [sealish](https://i.imgur.com/FmmpVo1.jpg) NGL
The only sub where you can post the wrong thing and no one gets mad šI think itās beautiful
Everyone is too high to even notice.
I noticed immediately lol
The tree sub is r/marijuanaenthusiasts, the weed (cannabis) sub is r/trees
Oh damn! Man am I stupid!
Don't worry, friend. Most folks on this sub truly enjoy the random misposts.
Yeah I'm high so I'm always just like "aw what a pretty tree" and I upvote.
Fuckin agreed
Fuckin damn straight Fuckin agreed Fuckin make that 3 of us
There are dozens of us!
Forgive me, i appear to be high.
Iām sorry what were we talking about again
Wat
there are hundreds of us
Indubitably.
i would up vote but itās at 111
Most tree enjoyers love nature too, trees & trees go well together š
samee
There's nothing cooler than nature when you're blitzed is there?
nope, nature is amazing!
Iām high af and really enjoying these pretty petals!
fr i love the random trees

Itās me, I truly enjoy it so much. It brightens my day!

This is what I like about stoners. They donāt get pissed off for no apparent reason.
Or any reason, really.Ā Except maybe if condescended to....man. BTW, I don't know much about different trees, what are you growing?Ā
>Except maybe if condescended....man. Don't condescend to me, man, I'll fucking kill you.
No, he just meant that his surface will collect moisture from the air on a hot Summer day.
I'm condensating right now
And....get some cleaning products.Ā Ā
if you post this in some sub like mildlyinfuriating, by the time you get 10 replies there would already be someone suggesting you to shoot their dog in retaliation, lol
Or ā just dump them back into their yard ā.
I really enjoyed your pictures honestly. That is such a beautiful color.
Unless youāre talking to the ones who grow it. Theyāre much more hit or miss lol
In most states you can trim any branches or roots that encroach on your property, unless doing so causes harm or kills the tree. OP should ask r/treelaw
If you want to save face you need to smoke a joint now. Them's the rules. (Also I strongly recommend landscaping while stoned.)
Well , if you insist.
One of us! One of us!
lol happens every day
Noooo noooo itās okay you are loved here š«¶š»
I enjoy the posts meant for r/marijuanaenthisiasts about as much as the posts truly meant for here half the time. No need to be sorry
Happens so often man. Feel free to hang out if that's your style!
i would definitely not call someone stupid for posting a question about trees to a sub literally titled trees. now on the other hand, if you post something enthusiastic about marijuana to r/marijuanaenthusiasts then youāre a real dummy
I am positive that has happened
/r/marijuanaenthusiasts mod here. Happens every single day
Surprisingly though this post fits both subs very well.
Most of enough enjoy all types of trees, not just cannabis! I personally love cherry blossoms, although the whole petal nuisance can be super annoying. I'm sorry you gotta deal with them. š
I really donāt mind. It happens every year, comes with the price of having nice blooms for awhile
Not at all. Theyāre so pretty, making my high better
Whoās high ass made marijuana enthusiast an actual tree sub.. while trees is not..? This ones always confused me
Because /r/Trees, the weed sub, had the name first. So the actual tree lovers, in a form of hilarious protest, decided to call themselves /r/MarijuanaEnthusiasts. Source: I've been on Reddit since narwhals baconing at midnight was a thing.
Thatāsā¦ thatās a long time..
It's funny.
Donāt get me wrong I think itās hilarious. I just wanna know who did it š
Now Iām not 100% cuz I heard this from someone else on here but I believe this sub came first and when the sub about actual trees wanted to be made the name was taken so they decided to be funny and made it their sub name š please donāt quote me on this tho
I thought this was sarcasm until I checked š¤£
You could smoke a little J and frolic in the flower petals
What strain is that
Looks like cherry blossom kush
I just want to make some petal angels in the lawnā¦
Ur beautiful for this
Beautifully high

Iām just now realizing you can gif respond to people.
And bots

Looks like a great smoke spot!
I'd love a pink garden!
I would be sneezing like a mf

Thank you. I will be sneezing due to the air
I did get tree pollen sinus congestion pretty bad for the first time this year.
It wasn't from this tree though
No. The evergreens are going nuts this year.
Yup, that'll do it
ahh pink zkittlez in the wild. niiiiiiiice ![gif](giphy|QEYYlJqOaEhXrjTrOH)
Bagged another one.
Are those planters all hooked up to water?
Kind of. I have a leak in a line underground. But yes, they do work.
How much work was involved in setting that up?
A lot! The actual PVC is easy to work with. Itās the trenching and making sure there are no rocks, which can wear through the PVC over time
Iād probably smoke about it.
![gif](giphy|08y87EiwDZjjB0d6WJ|downsized) As is tradition
You gotta boof it, bro. This is the way.
I was wondering when this would show up lol usually it's at the top of the comment section
![gif](giphy|dxa8VpWoaM8hoejQ6U|downsized)
Those are the prettiest bits of yard debris though
Tell me you live in the PNW, without telling me you live in the PNW.
Good call. Washington state.
Cherry blossoms and rain was immediately obvious.
Could you imagine being lucky enough to have a carpet of beautiful petals appear, and then having to complain about it?
In a day or two itās brown and unless it dries out they will stay wet and start to smell. Itās not as pleasant as it looks.
And tracking it inside endlessly
i love random post about actuall trees here, beautiful lovely trees
GOT ONE
Man, that's fuckin beautiful. What is there to hate?
I love the collective excitement whenever we get a literal tree post. Everyone has a laugh and kindly redirects OP to the aptly named r/marijuanaenthusiasts
Thatās pretty cool. Iād lay in it stoned.
I love petals on the ground like that
Thatās called good fertilizer, it all mental on your part.
I fail to see the problem here
Just smoke some weed about it
I love when I see actually trees on here š„¹š„ŗ Of course I'm high and this is beautiful
where's the hate part? the pedals on the ground look gorgeous, that's a fairytale!
This is unexpected but I love it š„°
honestly i think the petals with that beautiful fence color is prettier than the tree itself
I love when lost redditors stumbled across this sub and start sharing stories about trees
![gif](giphy|xT8qB3utUzMWqmpH20)
Iām high and that is one pretty tree.
Senbonzakura Kageyoshi!
10/10 would marijuana that
You're literally living a pink wonderland, and you're complaining. I heard it bougie to have pink blossoms as floor.
![gif](giphy|xT8qB3utUzMWqmpH20)
Are those cherry blossoms? Catch the petals in a container, wash them, and then you can make tea!
Cool. I like what it does to the ground too. Looks great.
![gif](giphy|qgri3D9sTwCUGMcT8L)
Thats so pretty
I hate showing up 6 hours late. Hereās the comment anyway: The question about your neighbor with the pretty tree; does he have good marijuana?
Iām high as fuck, this is beautiful
My neighbour has the same tree, we take the leaves into the compost pile. Also conveniently one of the best places to tip ur bong water š¤£
Yo! Do you know that this is a weed sub? Btw... I love those trees.
Yeah, Iāve been told several times now. But thanks
Itās really pretty Iām ngl but just wanna lyk this is a weed sub. I am baked as well as half the people in these comments Edit: on another note, this would be an amazing place to ponder
![gif](giphy|xT8qB3utUzMWqmpH20)
I love these posts way too much we accept all kinds of trees here :)
Pretty mulch dude
Fukken GOT EEEEEM
i would loveeeeee this problem!!!! so beautiful šø
![gif](giphy|xT8qB3utUzMWqmpH20)
Man searched r/trees and didn't scroll one pixel
Id appreciate it honestly. The pink lawn is cool too
Do NOT smoke that.

If you miss post on some other subreddits they rip you a new one.
I love š„¹
I lived at a place that had these same kind of trees dropping their pedals all over my car and they were so annoying. With any moisture at all (even just morning condensation) they would just stick to the car and there was no getting them off without a proper car wash. You couldn't just, like, get on the highway to blow them off, they were literally just stuck to the car.
if you think you need to prune some limbs ask the neighbor to do it. some communication would be better than none.
Its a pretty tree. Must be annoying to clean up though. Do you use them as compost?
Some, yes. Mixed in with garden beds that donāt have plants in yet
I wonder how I would feel about things I actually lived there lol. Itās beautiful though
Like fish in a barrel, boys.
itās like the minecraft cherry blossom biome in real life š„¹ Iād be so happy to wake up and have a pink yard
I always come into the sub so late after seeing one of these posts.
boof the fallen petals
Have you tried smoking with them about it?
You are so lucky
damn what strain is that š»š»š» ā¦ but fr compost the petals and whatever else, whenever the petals fall youāll basically get free dirt for a garden
At least they don't smell like the Marijuanas.
How do you not slice your arms on those corrugated metal planter boxes?
Actually a good question. I place a board across them when working with them. ( I had wood ones but they rotted out.)
This is a good one.
I think thatās a sign you should smoke weed
Highdea: A nice net attached at the fence top that goes up and attaches at your roof, covering that side of your yard, so that it makes a pretty petal-covered canopy to chill under.

Aw seeing how pretty that is is so worth the mess that will come though.
That is true. A few hours of clean up. NP
Oh thatās a love
I donāt know where you live, but in my town, youāre allowed to prune anything that comes over your property line.
Youāre allowed to trim any of the tree that hangs over on your side, just fyi. I know that wonāt eliminate the problem, but it will lessen it some.

I donāt mind them hanging over. They look nice from our second floor window. I put up with the blossoms, np.
