    The tree is about 6 feet tall from the bottom of the pot and the mature leaves are about 18" across. See the attached pictures. Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Thanks that helps a ton!

    Does anyone have experience with this plant? Is it as invasive as some websites suggest?

    YES! It's taken over, over half of my front yard.
    And a bit of the neighbors too.
