What exactly isn't a tree? This week we cover the other side of the controversy coin with a discussion on the Chinese windmill palm (Trachycarpus fortunei). We get into the thick of it and find out just what a palm is if it's not a "tree".

Completely Arbortrary is produced and hosted by Casey Clapp and Alex Crowson
