Just wish I knew what it was. 
Sometime last Spring or early Summer a fairly large tree branch fell during a storm. It laid there mostly intact for a week or so until I had the time and tools to clear it. Once I got it cut up so I could move it, I found the grass under it was completely dead. Not yellowed from lack of Sun ... brown .. dead.
And it's still dead. Only a small amount has begun to grow back into the edges of the dead spots. I have no idea what kind of tree it is ... just some kind of giant weed. I think somebody called a similar tree a Hackberry, but I'm not sure this is the same thing. It can't have been just a lack of Sun or the grass would have bounced back by now. It has to have been some kind of interaction with the dying leaves on the fallen branches. If they could harvest it, they could have one of the best grass killers on the market.
