Dream Species
Last week a good number of us expressed our feelings about species that we felt were uninspiring. How about this week we talk about the dream tree? The dream tree is a species that you'd love to work with but have never had the opportunity. Don't worry if that particular tree won't grow in your area, all we want to talk about is desire!
I've seen outstanding examples of a tropical species called phemphis. It looks like it would be a lot of fun to work with.

Taxus cuspidata, Premna and Phemphis, that would do it for me.
