We Have a Truffula Tree!

We've wanted a biggish plant for the living room for six months, and were both completely sold on this lovable bit of flora right out of a Dr. Seuss story. I could hug it, I love it so much (but I won't, so as not to crush and maim).

Theo Geisel's books aren't so well known here in Holland, so I don't know if our Dutch visitors will make the connection. Perhaps all the plant's appeal lies in its Seussical shape; Divagirl Eight pronounced it "yuck" and Deep Thoughts Ten hasn't even noticed it, I think. Speedybuns One would love to get his hands on it, but that's what the tallish pot's for.
