I dislike pine trees. They produce no fruit, nut or firewood and they kill off other plants. They also attract lightening and fall over on your house.
I have been on a campaign to get rid of the dozen or so that are in our front yard and replace them with useful trees.
So far I have been out voted.
I got some lovely chestnut saplings that would go perfectly in those spots.
They will also rot your roof....................
They smell good though.
