Not kidding, this actually belongs in https://lemmy.world/c/marijuanaenthusiasts because of deep lore reasons.

I have to admit, it's so nice that we brought along a few of the honestly cool parts of Reddit.

Looks like that community needs reviving

Is it damaged? Is it diseased / dying or hurting? Or are you just asking if you should or shouldn't keep the tree?

Evidently nobody remembers the last regular tree we got here, when I unilaterally decided to allow non-cannabis trees. Shrubs on the other hand will earn the poster a 3-day ban.

Further comparisons to reddit will also earn a 3-day ban. That place sucks and this place is rad. Don't @ me.

Sounds like someone needs to smoke some trees and chillax.

I'm not really going to censor talking about reddit but shrubs are bullshit, I'll die on that hill

[–] Agrivar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Fair enough

Some are invasive and should be eradicated when they overwhelm local species.

I wonder about this, as climate changes, wouldn't it make more sense to facilitate the movement of plants so they can survive?

[–] athairmor@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I doubt it. There’s whole ecosystems and food chains to consider. It’s one thing for a plant native to Mexico to move north to southern USA—the whole ecosystem can move with it. But, a tree from China spreading through the UK could still wreak havoc.

“Invasive” rarely means something from slightly warmer region nearby. It means something that is introduced and has no natural constraints—predators, competitors, diseases, etc.

Google says Ash or European Ash. Both are wrong for this sub but you got the spirit.

Trees is slang for cannabis which is why the logo for the sub is a pot leaf. You want the equivalent of marijuanaenthusiasts

Avocado tree?

Try the app plantnet

Also, wrong community.

[–] PlantJam@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

INaturalist is another good one to try.

[–] JustZ@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Looks like ash to me but need a better picture of the compound leaves.

Where are you located? If you're in the eastern half of the US, might as well put it out if it's misery after confirming it is an ash. The emerald ash boring beetle is an invasive insect set to kill pretty much every ash tree in the US. Plant sometime else in its place.
