A tree with no (officiall common) name, the Falcatifolium taxoides is a derivative tree from the island of New Caledonia. It’s yew-ish, it’s sickle-like, and it’s a PODOCARP. Plus, it has a curious leech of a friend who depends on it for everything—the world’s only parasitic gymnosperm.<a href="https://arbortrarypod.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Completely Arbortrary</a> is produced and hosted by <a href="https://caseyclapp.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Casey Clapp</a> and <a href="https://alexcrowson.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alex Crowson</a>Support the pod and become a <a href="http://arbortrarypod.supercast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Treemium Member</a>Follow along on <a href="https://instagram.com/arbortrarypod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>Find Arbortrary merch on our <a href="https://arbortrarypod.com/merch" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">store</a>Find additional reading on our <a href="http://arbortrarypod.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website</a>Cover art by Jillian BartholdMusic by Aves and The Mini-VandalsSee Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
