I would actually check the very first tree on the left. We have palms which more or less have branches that resemble the first tree. I’m just saying…

Look around and try to find a natural looking tree, once you find one in a few days you will see its had a haircut and an ugly one too. Everything is this way in this country, once something starts looks normal and going back its natural state, they send some Bangali workers to wreck it. Like the natural weeds that grow around traffic lights, once they see them growing they send some Bangali to cover the area with pink stones. Its natural greenery that isn’t costing you money or effort to maintain and looks much better than your pink stones. But i guess someone has to make some money with those pink stones don’t they?

Is this some weird IQ test?

Everything has to look ugly in this country because everyone seems to enjoy bad taste !

@someone – natural weed looks disgusting and isn’t good for other plants as it grows over them.

@Duke – Natural weed is beautiful in every sense of the word

What’s a Cunicarpi? Some kind of fish?

pretty soon there will not be any trees in Kuwait due to them being removed for reasons unknown. I guess desertification is the trend these days…

“we need parks too..:)”

… so people can go and burn the grass with barbeques and then leave all their rubbish scattered everywhere just as they do in all the parks and green spaces we already have.

A few hundred more Pepsi cans and KFC wrappers in the bushes – yes, that would really improve things.

Sarcastic, me?

Haha. That actually made me smile, especially the second tree… it’s true what you’re trying to say.. and I would have to agree with you! We want normal looking trees!! XD
