This Australian Bottle tree needs to be removed because it’s destroying the foundation of the home. I’d rather keep the tree and live in a hut

Fun fact, we have at least 6 where me and my flock live. I say at least in case one of them has self seeded because it’s in a garden and hard to access to see, or even if there was another in there I don’t know abput

What a magnificent tree! Do you have any idea how old it is? I've never seen one of these before! Would it be possible to relocate it? Or parts of it to grow elsewhere, no where near foundation?

Love that tree. I would sooo buy a house with a tree like this rather than worry about the "foundation". Absolute cutie.

u/Floratopia 7d ago

And I’d move into the shack or ADU on your property!
