Root

I received an email from Cynthis Franklin, she has a dead tree and is willing to donate the root to me. When Laura was a little girl, she brought home a 3” tree of an unknown species from Ikea and planted it in a pot. Twenty something years later Laura is living in NYC, and the tree is no longer flourishing. See below the root of this very interesting tree species that is still unknown.

Look at these long roots.
