Grow fast is definitely what they are good at lol. I actually felt a bit of fear as I watched mine grow. They are not supposed to set seed in cooler places but I have seen wild flowering ones across the border in Arkansas about 15 miles away, so no flowering allowed here as I dont want my neighbors upset at the 20 foot tall trees they have coming up in their yard the second year from seed lol.
