Bees love this, and when the sun goes down, the moths move in to feed.

Has a gorgeous shape to it I bet it looks impressive even from a distance on your grounds. Wonderful the bees and moths love it moth polinate more than bees.

This is deciduous, and in the fall I cut it way back. It is in the front of my house, so it gives a little shade in the summer.

That's great it gives you shade and to see this each day being at the front of your home.

Once, when I had it really cut back, I put a wooden platform in the center. Now the cats have a little area to go sleep during the day.

It's not a problem until Pokey decides it is hers. Then she will fight everyone who tries to get on it.

The neighbors cats know better than to get near my place. People keep trying to give me their unwanted, but Pokey doesn't want them around, so it doesn't happen.

Pokey sound better than a guard dog lol protecting her own ground and place ☺ People must know you love cats.

People know I like cats, which is a problem. They think that they can abandon any unwanted kittens or females and that I will take them in. But I don't run a shelter, so as much as it makes me uncomfortable, I ignore them.

I thought it might be a problem yes people have an habit of taking advantage of a good nature. I would ignore them to best way if they have no conscience why should you that's my thoughts now.
