I was cutting a new SXS trail today and stumbled on to this guy.
It's pretty cool, I think.

Very cool!

Hercules’ club, which is also known as toothache tree, tickle tongue, pepperbark, or prickly ash, is part of the Zanthoxylum genus

Louisiana has a bunch of them. They like wet soil.

I have a few that are guessing 18 to 20 inch diameter trees. Live on a hill and one just beyond the back yard died so cut it down and burned a little then decided would burn the whole thing. Burned hot and part of a 7 inch diameter piece placed over a bed of coals in the fireplace would still be giving good heat and not all burned through 8 hours later in the FP insert with the dampers closed. Coul not say that for the oak that size.

Never know what you might learn around here. First for me, as well.

We should keep this going and add more trees. Include leaf pictures.
