Sapling
OK so the information I have on this guy is....
Found in my back yard at a previous address in redding ca (northern ca) in the valley. About 500 to 1k elevation.
I know it looks like it's ground spreading but it really wants to grow up right, the soil is granular and the sheer weight of the foliage forced it laying down. The leaves are very thick and stiff almost leathery. The bark is whitish and new leaves that pop out are a brownish red color right when they open up. Also, where ever I make a cut, it doesn't back bud far down the branch, it grows right out the side to the cut. Someone said beech one time, idk.
