C\'mon, Wee - Toona sinensis is obviously a member of Meliaceae. How could anyone possibly confuse it with Ailanthus altissima which blatantly shouts \"Simaroubaceae be my buds!\"

Joking aside, I think this is a handsome tree that can provide a tropical look where a landscape might require that. It will likely \"run\" where conditions encourage that characteristic, but I doubt that there will be much seeding around especially as one moves northward. The very old plantings I noted above do not show anything other than additional stems moving outward from an initial center of planting.

Here are some pics of those plants - first from Monticello.
