we call it the muppet tree but...


...but seriously. What the hell is this?
After some research (thanks Google) it seems to be a Cotinus coggygria also known as a smoke tree. Which is actually a shrub. Whatever. It looks like something out of a wacky cartoon or a sci fi movie. Weirdest tree I've ever seen. I was totally ready to rip it out but now that it has a name besides "weird muppet tree" I'm kind of digging it. It is nothing if not unique!
