Damn trees never turn right on red after Stop. No tellin’ how much it's costing the economy to have trees back up traffic that would otherwise be flowing with less idle time.

Trees follow moisture.

If there is adequate water, trees will grow.

Any one who travels west of the Mississippi can observe Cotton Woods. They grow where there is adequate moisture. Follow the corronwoods and see the answer.

Seeds hitching rides on vehicles on the Interstate probably has more to do with this than the climate.

I read the title and I literally laughed out loud.

I used to read Popular Science regularly.

Not anymore.

I think there is an Aug 16 Joke Day thread that this entire thread would appropriately fit into...

I saw them too.

I think I saw the young sapling on a milk carton last month.

Could it have something to do with all of the tree planting campaigns.
