Just a quick comment, you can use it or not.
This species certainly has potential to become a weed.
I frequently find recruits adjacent to planted garden trees, in n-eastern NSW, at least.

Thanks guys. I have decided not to plant one. My husband remembered his boss planted one years ago where they used to work so we went and had a look. It's huge already (it's no more than 14 years old) and it has big roots that are lifting the bitumen. I think I'll give it a miss. Beautiful tree though.
