Popper-stalk

"Boy, you best clip that line of blabber unless you want me to tan your hide with a dry popper-stalk."

- Glen Taffral, to Webb Taffral

Popper-stalks were a type of plant native to the Outer Rim planet Saleucami. By the time Dav Taffral of the Rebel Alliance returned to his Saleucami home in 4 ABY, popper-stalks were growing outside the structure. During the Taffral's family dinner, Dav and his brother Webb Taffral began to argue, and their father Glen Taffral interrupted their dispute. Webb acted snide in response to his father's advice, and the older man threatened to strike him with a dry popper-stalk if he continued.

Behind the scenes
Popper-stalks first appeared in Aftermath, a canon 2015 novel written by Chuck Wendig.
