Would you call it reaffirming, ironic or  poorly timed, that the  100+ year old Maple that i had cut down this past winter has sprouted a lawn full of seedlings this spring?  I mowed around dozens of them today; there they are, unawares that their parent was removed in an unatural death  while in  dormant sleep;  not allowed  to nourish it's offspring as they grew and fed off it's decay.  There are more of these individuals coming up through the grass then there has been in many a spring.  And, what do i do with them?  I have two other Maples in the yard, one of them is likely an child of the old tree.  I had planned to maybe grow a smaller ornamental tree in the area  the old one once occupied, something like a native Dogwood or a Red Bud.  No one i know wants a tree. If i were to let one of these grow they would interfere with the wires and the electric comapny would come and buthcer it when it reached the height of the wires.
