Camphor Laurels are only allowed in metropolitan areas (noxious weed). This is the little tree in my back yard. I agree with everyone's comments and get bracnches up to 3m (9ft) long drop each year.

Everything here use to be level, but the Camphor Laurels expand.

Though extremely common, a street lined with camphor trees can have a pleasant look- this one in Beverly Hills, California

Camphor tree resprout after previous owner cut it down. A lot of work.

More camphor tree removal by undercutting and chopping roots and pulling it over.

Camphor berries are eaten by birds. The new trees sprout from their droppings.
