Renegade Grandma Tree

Renegade trees are suffocating the yard.
One became seven rather quickly.
When I discovered the mother tree,
I congratulated myself on a successful transplant years ago.
I had babied my little forest tree almost too much.
Never dreaming she was going to become the grandmother of the yard.
Going forth and multiplying.

She truly was just a pretty little unassuming bush that I chopped out of the back forty. I brought her up front, transplanted and babied her having no idea her intent.
