[Wikipedia] Invasive Species, Aggressive Root System: Tipuana tipu is viewed as an invasive weed in some countries and is known for having a very aggressive root system.[8] The tree roots can easily lift up concrete and asphalt. Precautions should be taken when planting near buildings, homes, or pools, as they are likely to be damaged (link added by Mary Ann Machi)
