Ailanthus altissima, commonly known as tree of heaven “is considered a noxious weed and vigorous invasive species, and one of the worst invasive plant species in Europe and North America. In 21st-century North America, the invasiveness of the species has been compounded by its role in the life cycle of the also destructive and invasive spotted lanternfly.” [Wikipedia]
These trees grew in vacant lots around where I lived. While we didn’t consider them ‘evil,’ we didn’t climb them because the wood was soft, and branches broke easily. ‘Climb-ability’ was our opinion toward friendliness and virtue in trees.

Might certain species of trees be considered Bad?

The cut was a hatchet angle cut, then became a chain saw flat cut. Must have been too hard to draw.

It could’ve been worse. He could’ve landed up in Eaten by voracious termites.

Apparently there’s a poem that is more lovely than this tree.
