The caption under the first picture reads: "When branches or roots from different trees are in prolonged intimate contact, they often abrade each other, exposing their inner tissues, which may eventually fuse."

I feel like I'm intruding.

Elephant's Child said...

Thank you. I will never, ever tire of trees.

#8 looks like a tree cheerleader shaking her pom-poms. And #1 looks like a dendrological homage to Darth Vader telling a lower ranking tree that he finds its lack of faith disturbing.

I never get tired of rainbow bark trees (#12), but #15 and #18 are stunning too.

John A Hill said...

Wow!
My favorite is the one with the benches inside.

Cloudia said...

Dang this is fairy tail stuff!

Mike said...

Kirk - A voyeur, huh? (I misspelled voyeur so I googled it. Google images.) WOW.

Sue - Got ya covered for a long time.

Bill - I can see both of those.

Kathy - I think I could do a whole blog on rainbow bark trees.

John - You need to plant a tree like that now so someday you can... Have your ashes spread in it.

Cloudia - There are quite a few that meet that criteria.

River said...

#2 looks like a nice place to sit and contemplate.

Lady M said...

Number 10 and 18 are just gorgeous!

Mike said...

River - Agreed.

Lady - I'd bet you wish you could transplant #10 to your yard.
