      In September, our monthly theme is Trees.

      Based on the alphabet, can you think of types of trees, parts of trees, etc? With the number of trees that exist, I am pretty sure we can go through the alphabet in no time!

      Let’s go!

      Because I want more people to jump in the game, I will ask to NOT post two consecutive answers (unless there is a 24 hour period without answer since it could mean we are stuck)

      (remember: only ONE answer per letter, to give us more options for seconds if we get to that point)

                        I = Irontree, a subspecies of the olivtree and the nickname of a tree discovered in 1896 in Pennsylvania. It also is the name of a tree in the Starwars series.

                                                          Yes, I used Google.

                                                          Z = Zamia Furfuracea

                                                          From southeastern coastal Mexico.
                                                          To 3 feet high, 6 feet wide.
                                                          Short, sometimes subterranean stem.
                                                          Fronds to 3 feet long, usually much less; have as many as 12 pairs (usually fewer) of extremely stiff, leathery, dark green segments to 412 inches long, 1 12 inches wide.
                                                          Segments may have a few teeth toward the tip.
                                                          Best in a fairly sunny spot, but with protection from hottest midday sun.

                                                          They are slow growing and costly, but with good care will last for many years, both indoors and out. Short trunks (may be completely or partially beneath soil level) are usually marked with scars from old leaf bases. Trunks are topped with circular crowns of leaves that resemble stiff fern fronds or small palm fronds.
