The ones I keep trying to kill have a wad of branches at the top but nothing up the trunk.

Devil's walking stick has pinnately compound leaves and what I think you are calling branches, Eric, are the petioles for the compound leaves. The patch along my driveway have no branches.

That Devil's Walking Stick looks real nasty!  At least until the bark is peeled off!  What is the scientific name!

Aralia Spinosa, The Morton Arboretum. The one I cut is big enough in diameter for a bow, and on the very top looked to have rotted branches, and when I cut the tree they explode when they hit the ground.
