A thorny customer.

A weird thorn tree of sorts encountered in the forest on a hike.

There are lots of mosses of different varieties growing up the stem.

Not a usual shape for a tree.

Another view.

EXCELLENT POST, I LIKE, THIS TREE IS REALLY STRANGE, ANOTHER WONDER OF MOTHER NATURE. I FOLLOW YOU

Is it real????

wow it looks amazing, I have never seen such big thorns on a tree before, in my country they are half that size. It looks prehistoric covered in mosses. They look like lichens and talindsias growing on the tree with the mosses.

It's beautiful! Do you have any idea of what species is it?

Really nice! Moss reminds me very much of Tillandsia usneoides, an epiphytic plant that grows on tree branches, could it be a similar species?
