i pine for you every second of the day.

A pine rose? Why would you do dat?

I don't really know, Nonnie. I just felt...compelled.

*tries to imagine a pine rose ... or a rose pine -- now -that- might be pretty... all that green and those reds/pinks/etc*

Both of my grandmothers were named Rose. One of them had a pine in their front yard.

My one grandmother was named Myrtle.. If I recall correctly, she had some pine shrubbery next to the trailer.

I'd like to have a nice pine. All the trees here look so grey in winter. Some greenery would be pleasant. I do have a rhododendrun (?) that stays green all year.

I prefer maple and oak... I love their Autumn colours.

There is a lovely oak in the woods behind my house. It's in the shape of a V , and there is a family of squirrels living in a hole in it. They don't seem to like the acorns, though. They drive the dogs crazy.

Is it one tree or two grown together?

I have a maple that was in the shape of a V... but that sculpture was an example of one of mother nature's artistic instruments called 'lightning'.

This is one tree. It's got to be 5 feet around the base. It's beautiful.

I cannot blame BB for his OakTree fetish. They -are- a beautiful specimen.

We have about 30 trees on our property. Only 1 maple and the rest are ash trees. How was your weekend?

Busy.

We have tons of trees here. Many Walnuts, Maple, Mulberry, Wild Cherry, Apple (various varieties), but mostly locust trees (both black and white varieties). Sadly no Oaks or Willows, though I've been trying to get them to grow here for ages.
