      1. It is a weird one that seems to comes in all sorts of shapes! This one is still fairly immature, so I will be going back to see how it progresses in its growth!

        1. I was just wondering if this is the way it typically looks. It would be interesting to see how it changes with maturity. Posted 7 years ago
