    Those are beautiful trees. Why do you call them “weed trees”; because they grow fast? I hope there is good reason for taking them down, like disease. I know citizens of Wellesley love their trees, even the sick ones, so it should be an interesting hearing!

      I call it a weed tree because it is often called that. Nothing personal…
