Many Orchid trees at San Diego State University...they produce a bean pod. The Hong Kong Orchid doesn't it is a sterile hybrid. You will see this Orchid tree sprouting up all over the campus because of all the seeds that are produced. These are very fast growing trees also.

In Texas there are lots of grackles.
Do you see those in your neighbourhood ?

We don't have grackles here. We have many crows, sparrows, doves, hummingbirds, and wild parrots. The crows and parrots can drive you nuts!
