When I looked at the scaled photo at first, I thought it was a Baobob -- I guess because I'm a fan of
Le Petit Prince

Plus upon closer inspection the foliage appears more like needles than broadleafs, and the trunk has the scaley look of something in the cedar family. So that's my SWAG. Do I earn my forestry badge?
