Hello
The sassafras, known sometimes by Native Americans as the greenstick tree, starts out just so-as a green stick seemingly growing without obvious genesis. While the plant can grow from seed, the most common (and annoying I am forced to say) is its habit of growing from suckers or volunteers from hidden rootstock derived from mature trees. Sassafras can grow inches a year, so it gets big quickly. Loads will grow all at once. A full grown tree can reach sixty feet, so its hard to imagine you wouldnt see the the materfamilias, but with a big crown, the mama can be pretty far away and you might not notice it. The greenstick volunteers grow in horrifying profusion and are practically impossible to get rid of in a backyard or garden.
