This mutant tree plant grew at astounding speed from a minuscule sprout to its current 3-meter height in the back common yard of our East Village residence. What is this exotic species? A Brazilian transplant? A prop bred for the rain forest scene in the film remake of "The Illustrated Man"? An experimental hybrid grown for the sequel of "Avatar" or a new "Doctor Who" episode? A Triffid? Consider this: the plant is growing from a hole in the concrete wall, with no apparent soil or water for nutrients.


Anyone?
