Apple trees... kinda suck, they aren't very robust and they grow best in full sun. With that said I do agree in principle that people should be more careful with invasive plants I just dont see apples outcompeting actual forest trees in a forest. Also they can't self pollinate so that tree wouldn't be able to produce fruit and future apple trees anyways. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 months ago It's the habit that's shit, not necessarily the "trash" contents, yes. permalink fedilink source parent [–] chillpanzee@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 months ago* It's a "dad joke" for the entire animal kingdom. Shitting out the seeds is quite literally how plants survive and flourish through the ages (before Monsanto genetically nerfed em anyway). oops, replied at the wrong level...
