I didn't know a tree this young could have such a ball of sap coming out of it. I love the sap shapes!

The fluffy leaves looks more like A. vestita, which you sometimes see planted around here, rather than the local A. pravissima. A. pravissima also has two veins in the leaf (in a v shape), whilst A. vestita has 1 vein
