| In our valley, we have "widowmaker" Valley Oaks, old Bradford Pears that can explode in thunderstorms and Chinaberry trees which are the subject of several superstitions. Any other landscape trees which qualify as potential Halloween Nightmares? |

| Do pretty halloween/fall colored super-invasives like Chinese pistache qualify? They can sneak up and eat your environment! Hey, and not just on Halloween but year 'round. hortster |

| Super-invasive...Chinese pistache??? The only state in which I see it listed as even a low level invasive is Texas. Weedy, maybe, but I've never seen it listed as a significantly invasive plant. |

| In my area they are showing up everywhere. In the 80's they were questionably hardy here since we got a number of zone 5B winters. Seedlings, even saplings would freeze out. Larger trees would generally make it. Since then they are volunteering and spreading. hortster |
