Depends - if the trunks both arise separately from the base and have roots attached to each part, possibly - if the trunk splits well above soil level, no.

Hi Bamboo, many thanks. Much appreciate your time!

I couldn't resist a fellow fan of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!

Strange series of books, very strange...fun, too! "It's like being drunk."

I don't think its that strange, but then I've spent years reading science fiction, so maybe that's why its not strange to me, but I do find it absolutely hilarious. It's the only non fiction book I own, everything else that's a novel gets passed on or recycled, I occasionally reread it and it still makes me laugh...

I knew I knew the name. thanks for that bamboo. read it years ago.
