This rare and unusual dwarf male Maidenhair Tree originated in China, long ago, when someone noticed curious protrusions growing all over the tree's trunk. 'Tschi Tschi' literally means "breast", referring directly to these burl-like growths, which add an extra layer of gnarled interest through the winter months. It may also found listed as "Chi Chi"
