Leopardwood

When she was alive, Nick's "lady" had been a leopardwood tree.  They have the most beautiful bark and are quite interesting in how they grow, starting out as a tangled mess of thorny green on the ground surface and slowly stretching into a messy (still thorny) shrub before emerging as a stunning tree, often with graceful draped branches.

Hmmm, I have hunted through our 2000+ pics of Yowah and cannot find decent shots of either the "tangled mess" or "stunning tree", so will work on acquiring those next visit!
