Trees please.


I adore trees. I get that from my mother.

Since moving to Pennsylvania I have become absolutely fascinated with the vegetation here. So many of the trees look like characters from an enchanted forest. There is one tree at the shore I have fallen head over heels with: the monkey puzzle tree. If the trees can be so different just a few states away - imagine a few countries away! Here are some amazing trees! And an incredible TED link on the eco-systems of the redwood trees.
