“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'

I love the different shades of green!
2 obvious shades of green gives a beautiful contrast.
I love all the different shades of green and the shapes are great too.
So restful on the eyes, Gemma. Green in the landscape immediately creates a feeling of serenity and rest.
Many thanks for linking up with the Friday Greens meme. Hope you can join up later this week again!
