De-seeding a tree?
Is it possible to spray a tree or put something on its roots to stop it from producing seeds? We have a large ash tree in our front garden and the millions of seeds cause so much mess on the lawn and all over the driveway. I've been having a real go at the mess this week, even digging out seeds from between paving blocks but after the wind today, I might just as well not have bothered. One time I even opened my car door and found a seed had germinated in the car. I guess what I'm after is a vasectomy for trees!

We've been in our house 26 years and the tree was already here so it's pretty old - in fact the tree has three trunks. It seems my options are 1. Cut the tree down 2. Spend much of my time clearing up seeds 3. Learn to live alongside the mess.
