Ash trees are resilient and can grow very quickly. However, they often fall prey to a specific kind of beetle called emerald ash borers. If you don’t want to attract these bugs to your yard, then it’s best to avoid planting this tree.

Weeping Willow Trees

Weeping willows are beautiful and ethereal thanks to their long, elegantly drooping leaves. They are native to Asia, but their roots can become problematic if planted in yards or gardens. Their roots are aggressive and can cause damage of water lines and pavements. They also absorb a lot of the water in the soil, putting any nearby plants at risk.
