I have a 24 inch treelike plant. It's trunk starts out round but about 8 inches from the soil, the trunk starts squaring up, but instead of 4 surfaces, it has five. The leaves are 10 inches long, 3 inches being the stem of the leaf. They are similiar to a rubber tree in shape but their thickness is more like a split leaf philodendron. It continually reseeds itself in the pot below. The leaves have straight lines across from each other, which are spaced about 1/2 to 1 inch apart, depending on the size of the leaf. Each of the five flat surfaces that continue up the last 16 inches of the tree, have a short, brown, hairlike growth on them. The trunk looking down is shaped like a pentagon. Does anyone have any idea what the name of this plant is, and where it originally came from? Thanks, Donna
