Looks a lot like a money tree to me, but I'm no expert with plants.

If so, no it isn't safe.

LMAO!!!! people do that on purpose as the plant grows. You can do the same thing to an oak tree n it would still be an oak tree.

Decent sized trees seem hard to come by on the plant list, but you can by a large Ficus, or Hibiscus. House plant types like pothos (golden pothos/devils ivy) and shefflera arboricola (umbrella tree) are good.

They seem to seek out more substantial sources of water as the get bigger, such as drips from a dripper etc
You can use a bare branch tree and hang some safe list plants from it too.
