They were a habitat for flying foxes, and the wild bees used to love the nectar pods when they sprouted, plus they did provide some shade from the western sun. But on the other hand, they dropped a hell of a lot of rubbish, and you could definitely see the distortion of the rear concrete barbecue area. Our next door neighbour said the ones he had removed a year or so ago destroyed an entire retaining wall.
Anyway, it's too late now, they've been hacked off to almost ground level and have been taken away in a rather large truck!
