My favourite is the tree rubbed by the Deer's antlers. BTW Les, several of your images are "broken" starting with the Ginko one.Sybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944601364218561984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765612855992884633.post-48492487115873516682015-09-14T21:52:35.532-04:002015-09-14T21:52:35.532-04:00There is nothing like giving the gift of a tree: i...There is nothing like giving the gift of a tree: it keeps on giving. <br />What a lovely place for you to visit and see them mature over the year.

The photos of the Crape Myrtle bark are fabulous. I can't grow them here, but I remember seeing some wonderful specimens of various colors in Branson, Mo., when we were there for a family reunion a few years ago. My favorite in this post, though, is the Bald Cypress. There's just something about the form of foliage and the tree, itself, that I find very appealing.Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.com
