“You know why trees smell the way they do?” Murphy asked, looking up from her hammering. “Sap?” Logan guessed. “Chlorophyll?” Murphy shook her head. “Stars. Trees breathe in starlight year after year, and it goes deep into their bones. So when you cut a tree open, you smell a hundred years’ worth of light. Ancient starlight that took millions of years to reach earth. That’s why trees smell so beautiful and old.” ~ By Frances O’Roark Dowell in 'Where I’d like to be'

Welcome to the Art of Trees and Plants
This blog is created to look at trees and plants in a different way from the usual botanical connections.
In fact, there will be many photos without names of plants simply because I don't know what they are.
Instead the photo aims to look at the beauty, the uniqueness, the art.
I have a passion for the art of rain drenched tree trunks - especially in a Spring flowering landscape.
