sure I may overthink things, but on the upside, this gives me something to work with art-wise that isn't just the same oc 5 times in a row
#ramblings#nothing wrong with drawing the same oc 5 times in a row- i've done it before and I'll do it again#anyways did you know that the Kurrajong bottle tree (Brachychiton Populneus) takes about 30 years to fully mature?#it's native to australia but does well in any warm climate with drought seasons- you're only supposed to water it deeply every 2-3 weeks#apparently it's a popular choice for city planting#and the one in my parents' front yard fell over. it was just under 30 years old. likely a combination of high winds and root rot#at least im pretty sure it was a Brachychiton Populneus. its cousin Brachychiton Rupestris doesn't match as well visually#all I knew up until today was that it was called a bottle tree and it was real tall and skinny and it had clusters of hard brown pods
