GG, how do you use the little helicopters as decorations. I have a lot of those floating down from the poplar trees. The poplar trees are beautiful but they are always dropping something to the ground. I enjoy their beauty and shade in summer but cleaning up after them is something else.

I don’t know about poplars. The maple helicopters are red in spring, at least here. We have red maples. :) The sq’s chew the branches off because they’re stupid, I guess. They don’t eat them. LOL I appreciate it tho. If I can remember and collect them, they’ll dry on the branches and they look pretty in fall arrangements. Very delicate and airy, kind of oriental-ish.
