They don't look so great in the fall when they're covered in seed pods.

Yes, I agree, but I still think the tree is worth it--I love the fragrance from July through September (in Middleboro, Ma), and how it attracts many hummingbirds. It is not too invasive here. Thanks for sharing your picture.

Yes, you had better enjoy sweeping and raking! While I love ours, it drops something year round... spent blooms, seed pods or leaves. The seeds take hold just about anywhere too and we are constantly removing sprouts from whatever dirt they managed to fall into. Again, very beautiful though and we get tons of humming birds. We like it enough to put up with the mess. :-)
