Yes we're looking at tree trunks at the
Marie Selby Botanical Gardens this time. That's me standing under a branch, so much beauty, strength, and wonder in trunks of trees.
There's much to see and contemplate in nature and gardens.
I don't know what has happened to my relays; they were supposed to be dropped shipped to me. I'll have to call to see where they are. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
It's the old trees that draw me to them and the one's with amazing roots above ground. They feel wise, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteThose tree trunks just call you to play in them.
ReplyDeleteHi Robyn, thanks, yes the trees are wise with the knowledge of longevity and the stories I imagine they could tell about their time growing. One of the trees the last one was uprooted in a huricaine and was pruned severely and replanted and came back to life again, amazing.
ReplyDeleteHi Lori, thanks, yes the trunks were magical to walk around, if I was a kid again I surely would have climbed upone.
So glad you climbed in among the roots so we could see the size of them! Lovely and inspiring!
ReplyDeleteThose are some incredible trees. I would love to see them sometime.

Love those crazy tree roots! I can't beging to tell you how many photos I have taken of them when I am in Florida... I just can't help myself!
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing trees. The picture of you standing under the trunk shows how unique they are. Love them.
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara, thanks, the tree roots truly amazed me, some of them were supporting branches larger than tree trunks.
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Sparrow, thanks, oh to have one of those in my yard to gaze upon daily, they were worth the visit.
Hi Sparkle, thanks, I too have always been drawn to trees and the ones in this garden had me doubting I could choose a favorite.
Hi Teresa, thanks, I wish I could live next door to this garden, I would be in heaven daily.
Hi Joanne, thanks, isn't that the coolest blossom, just a single on on the whole tree.
Hi Meredith, thanks, these trees really inspired me with their uniqueness, we are warming up again; don't like ice at all too scary to walk in or drive in.
Hi Elna, thanks, these were amazing trees and some of them related to indoor plants the ficus.
Hi Michele, thanks, looking at these trees reminded me of Michael Mahan's work with his intricate tree carvings.
Hi Dee, thanks, I was just as surprised when I got home and looked at the photo of me so dwarfed by the tree, truly wonderful.
