Home Horticulture in Maricopa County, 

We recently moved into a home in McDowell Mountain Ranch in Scottsdale.  We have a desert landscape yard with many beautiful flowers, shrubs, and trees.

However, I believe we have a large Acacia or Mesquite tree in our front yard, which sheds several brown seeds all over the yard.

Is this normal?  What is the best way to clean up these seeds given our gravel landscape?

Thanks.

Mark
