This weekend we took a walk up to the plant store at the corner to see what kind of floral life was abound and among the beautiful flowers, the pitcher plants, the cactus, and bonzai trees I found this little fellow…

… and I fell in love with it.

I’ve always liked tuber trees - which isn’t really an official tree classification, but more of a description. What I like to call “Tuber Trees” are those types that have thick wide stumps that are large in the middle and then dwindle out to normal tree size when it reaches the branches - most of the time producing tiny sized leaf bunches that look like a bad haircut. Anyway, I saw this little tree, threw down 20 bucks, and named it Stubs.
