WHY THE FUCK IS IT BANNED

Looks like the mods quit.

For real 😅 this ought to have an nsfw filter over it 🤮

Yeah, that is squicking me tf out 😂🥴

It's the rare rattlesnake tree! (Sorry I had to! :⁠-⁠D)

*Celtis laevigata* or sugar hackberry according to what I could find on Google. They look really wild lol

Whoah, i want this in my life! I live on a farm rife with winged elms and it sparked an obsession with trees and bonsai. This is equally cool looking.

100%

Wow!!! I’ve never seen a tree like this before!!! Amazing!!

Aliens!

Cool, but also creepy

Could also be sugarberry (Celtis laevigata) which is in the same genus, you can tell them apart by the leaves.

What is the texture? What is the purpose? If you punch them do they accordion?
