A Year With the Trees

I write "A Year With the Trees" to bring an awareness to the world about the importance of trees to the future of our planet. Planting and being stewards of trees native to where you live is of vital importance for the health of animals, insects, birds, all life, including our own. I am studying the trees that are native to Southern Appalachia, where I live. This blog illustrates 92 trees and why we need to be responsible to keep native plant communities alive and well.

February 1 - The Apple Tree - Malus domestica

The Apple Tree

This Apple Tree lives next door to me. The apple tree reminds me of Apple Cider and Apple Jack and pioneers moving out west in America. You see, I have been listening to the book, "The Botany of Desire" by Michael Pollan. If you ever want to learn more about this amazing fruit, I encourage you to listen or read what Michael P. has to say. I found what he talked about most enlightening.
