Trees....they grow on you!

Not a tree hugger but I like trees! (So did J.R.R. Tolkien!)

J.R.R. Tolkien loved trees, especially this black pine in the Oxford Botanic Garden, and was often photographed with them. His grandson Michael took the last known photograph of him with this tree, which he named Laocoön.

I really like trees too! All kinds. Except kiawe, thorny and the branches drop so it’s not fun walking around them. Also kiawe honey is really good. I think it’s also called mesquite.
