I think I've seen something similar at my university's botany greenhouse

What is that? A leafless Bonsai? Temperate species?? COool!!!
I too grow Aroids and some Broms, but My favorites are the Aroids including Cryptocorynes and Anthurium species. See my gallery for pics of my Aroids in my My Aroids album.
Plus I had started a similar thread a while back, take a look:

It is a bit too big to be bonsai.  The Latin name is Corylus avellana 'Contorta'. It is a sport of Corylus avellana. It is without leaves because the photo was made in early spring. And now it has nice young juicy leaves. Unfortunately, aphids love those leaves much more than their miserable little lifes.  |

Yes, you can meet this tree on the streets in some European countries. Austria, for example. But it is too cold to grow it outside in Ukraine.

Yep, but it doesn't look anywhere near as big and so well grown as yours does!  |

It grows very quickly. I'm sure the plant near your house will grow up quicker than my indoors. |
