How long do Cottonwood trees bloom around here?

[Ah Pook]

Forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep.

Actually they stop about the time the pine pollen starts up here. EVERYTHING will be yellow.

ok
not a lawyer, didn't stay a holiday inn express

your property has air rights straight up from your property line
typically branches that hang over can be removed without the other person's permission. (although you really should deal with it before hand)

You should be OK by mid-October...

My wife and I actually paid to have the NEIGHBOR'S cottonwood removed. They were about to be foreclosed on, and didn't have the cash to have that dangerous, branch dropping, mess making bastard cut down. It was worth every penny of the grand that we paid, just so we could use our back yard again....

Not the one on Floyd and Chambers??

That's already started, damn pollen all over my cars right now and I'm in SW Denver.

I have two giant, over 60' tall, cottonwoods between my house and the nieghbors house. I want them gone so bad but can't afford it right now. I have huge limbs just hanging over my house and I can only wash my truck twice a year because those f*#king tress drop sap then the cotton sticks...it's like tar and feathering my truck everyday. Also, the roots are coming up and part of my driveway has buckeled severely that it all has to be replaced.

Are these your trees? Or the neighbors? Big cottonwoods can bring bad juju, they tend to lose very large branches in storms that can damage houses, crush cars and fences, etc. Plus the root thing you already know about. They're great for shade, but they're not very sturdy trees and can cause you large grief. They really should be dealt with somehow, but at least make sure you're insured well to protect against "tree mayhem".

Nah...just a little one in our cul-de-sac near of Colfax and Tower. It was not real healthy, planted back in the 80s...probably 50 ft high...

It's right on the property line. My neighbor is actually waiting for my half to get these bastards removed. I absolutely hate them so as soon as I can I'll get the taken care of.

Are you going to cut them up for firewood Opie? I hear cottonwood is the most crappy of our available wood for burning, but whatever.

I'll probably have it all hauled off. If you want some, I'll let you know if/when they get cut down.
