:shock: WOW!

The order is the 21st on your list but I believe its spelled wrong. (you never know the way thy change things so much with taxonomy)

And I will give you a hint: Its bark is used for something other than wood.

Now I know game is probably over right? :lol:

Number #21 is Fabales. I think it is not wrongly spelled. Maybe you meant "Fagales"? Well, it is different ordo ;)

Hey, I am confused here. Bark is different from wood. Bark is phloem and wood is stele :?

Well, maybe the function is... cork? :)
