I have been following your blogs for about a year. My husband and I have just relocated to the Piney Woods of E. TX. On our 20 acre property we found an interesting tree--the Chinese Tallow.
In researching it, I found this document:

I don't know if anyone is actually using this tree as a resource...
Blessings and thanks for your information.

Thanks E.T. for the great info! (Please...no phone home jokes!)

Invasive is the word. They grow up from the roots and will make a thicket that looks like a wild plumb thicket at least 15 feet high.
I don't like the smell of the blooms.
I'm glad someone thinks they can find a use for it but I suspect that is sort of like people trying to find a use for kudzu. We are stuck with it so me may as well try to get something out of it.
Not even "one" phone home joke? Darn!
Elllliiiiiooooottttt.... ; )
