Do yourself a favor, cut it down. We’ve planted on in our yard at the edge of our driveway years ago. I hate the f#*&n thing! Dirty, brittle branches, freakin nuts everywhere in the driveway. Our’s is about 60’ to the top of the canopy, when those nuts fall from that height, they can do some serious damage to a car if it’s parked nearby. Ask me how I know. Have had the local Amish folks look at it, they don’t want it even for free. My tree guy says they’re not worth much anymore, he’ll take it down but will charge me. I wouldn’t put much faith in the hype that they’re worth a lot of $$$ either. Wife won’t let me take it down until it’s near dying or dead. Stuck with it for awhile I guess. Lots of nuts this year! Can’t wait for it start dying off so we can get rid of it. Worst thing I ever planted….
