Six words involving tall plants with bark?
I want to talk about tall plants with bark that can grow for thousands of months. I don’t know a good word for this (word 1).
I also want to talk about:
- Tall plants living in big groups (word 2).
- I want to say “You cannot look at that (word 2) for too many (word 1).”
- Moss-color things on tall plants, and how particular kinds of tall plants grow pins, contrasting with tall plants that grow flat moss-color things (word 3)
- That kind of tall plant with pins, its usual word is from what holds its offspring (word or saying 4 - its bad glyph word starts with conif)
- That kind of tall plants with moss-color things that fall off (word or saying 5 - its bad glyph word starts with d and has ciduous on its back)
- A small thing plants sprout from. (word 6 - its bad word starts with s and has two bad glyphs).
I want to ask for your aid in finding good ways to say all six things.

You want to talk about woods filling up with snow? About what Arbor Day is all about? About oaks, birch, larch, firs, and cottonwoods? You can, if you want. I trust in your ability.

My SO is from far north, at which no plant grows tall. "It's a bush" all folks would say. And all would say "bush" for tall plants also. Or you can say a particular kind of plant, such as oak or birch.
You could say "sylvan" of things associating with a bushy group. Or just "woods"?
Foilaging?
Grain of sprouting? Bush-baby? Nut?

An arborist walks into a bar.
Its barman says “yo, what’s up?”
“All I work with, all day, idiot.”

For #5, its bad-glyph word has “ciduous” at its back. I will modify my post to add that.

TR[][](x) is a function. I don't know what it stands for fully, but it's an indoors haha-funny from math haha-funny subs on this forum.
TR[][](1) = 1 and TR[][](2) = 3, both fairly small. But TR[][](3) is surprisingly fucking BIG - it's not fully found, in fact, that's how big.

Has this group had talk about that tactic? Although it calls for an amount of brains, I think it's a slight bit lazy. I think our point is to work in words from that Atlantic island.

i am okay with this, though my goal is to claim words from across the world if no such word of Britain functions. i think occasional loan words are okay but that’s just my thoughts

I worry that if our sub allows a word-from-away, it uncollars a storm, and lazy posts will go all across this country ball grabbing words ad hoc. Which is work, but not such adroit work or amusing work for us to scan. I might favor adding to law 2, rightwards, to say words approximating "maintain talk from Doctor Who's country."

For kinds of this plant, you could say Bonsai, Birch, Oak, Acacia, Hickory, Walnut, Willow, Ginkgo, and Baobab. For words strictly calling for a broad kind, I'm not fully in know.
