Just devastating. 💚🌳💚

A majestic tree
once stood proudly in our 'hood.
Felled by new owners.

Jari-chan Oh no. RIP 🌲🌳 5d

Susanita 😤 5d

Eggs Sometimes the tree looks healthy but is sick inside and weak and could become dangerous in storms and crash through your house. Always hard to lose big trees 🌳 💔 5d

dabbe @TheBookHippie 😭🎯🩵🎯😭 5d

dabbe @lil1inblue I may be a bitch, but they're not getting a welcome to the neighborhood gift from me. 😭 5d

dabbe @AmyG It was at least 100 feet tall. 😭 5d

dabbe @Jari-chan 😭🌳😭 5d

dabbe @Susanita 🤬 (I finished the emotion). 5d

dabbe @Eggs You make a good point. To feel better, I'll try to think that way. 💔 5d

AnnCrystal NO! 😢🤬😒😭🌲❤️‍🩹... 5d

dabbe @AnnCrystal Yes. 😭🌳😭 5d

JenlovesJT47 So sad. I felt like I could smell the tree as soon as I saw the haiku and was transported to the woods. Sad but beautiful 🩵💙🩵💙🩵🫂 5d

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe not a bitch! I don‘t blame you at all. 5d

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 It had a beautifully intense smell--an Aleppo Pine. 💚🌳💚 4d

#5JoysFriday

1) My new candles from a small Oregon business
2) A sign found on the internet that explains why
3) I was at local protest on the 5th. Was my first, won‘t be my last
4) Loving the art that is included in tagged book
5) Bibimpap! Another first at lunch with a friend. Yummy!

Thanks for the tag! @DebinHawaii

Wow, April already! 🌸🌞🌸

Are you still enjoying our daily arboreal treat? 🌳
Did you have a favourite passage from the March entries? I adored An Orchard in Spring by Isidore Verheyden (1897). Inosculation is quite cool, too.https://crowspath.org/love-trees/

kspenmoll I am enjoying this so much! Starts my day with music from Year of Wonder, an excerpt from The Book lover‘s Almanac, breakfast, & of. Course, coffee! Favorite tree posts: The Green Man & the coffee tree, of course!!!3/10, 3/21 3mo

Cuilin March 2, Ogham, my name cuilin/cuilinn/cuilean come from this old Celtic tree alphabet. March 31 Box Hill, I remembered it from Jane Austen‘s Emma and the fiasco of the picnic and of course March 10 coffee!! 3mo

Deblovestoread Such a peaceful few minutes I have daily with this book. March was filled with fascinating entries but I loved the two page entry with The Lone Tree of Wanaka for March 27. Beautiful, peaceful pic. Also the 29th Peasant‘s House at Éragny by Pissarro. ? 3mo

I love a little bit of serendipity. Today‘s tree entry from the tagged book matching @TheBookHippie journal prompt “Spring Means…”

“Greeting the first delicate and resilient blossom of spring is always eagerly anticipated moment signaling longer days and the return of the light.”

Hi, tentative 👋

I'm slowly starting to feel better. February has been a tough month. All I've been doing is resting and reading. My daughter brought me snowdrops to cheer me up. A sign spring is springing. 🌞

I've got a lot of catching up to do.

Bookwormjillk Glad to see you back! We've missed you! 4mo

KadaGul @AllDebooks I know the feeling of being sick 🤧😷🤒🤮. I spent the whole of January and February being sick and finally starting to get better. 4mo

AnnCrystal Wonderful that you're recovering 🙏🏼💝📚💝. 4mo

From the reading for February 22 of A Tree a Day comes this fun but weird word!

epiphyte: a plant that grows upon another for support only, not as a parasite

#WeirdWordWednesday #WeirdWords #NaturaLitsy

julieclair I am totally loving this book! 4mo

Daisey @julieclair I can‘t seem to ever remember to actually pick it up two days in a row, but I am loving it as well. 4mo

julieclair Have you reached the page about the cork trees yet? It totally made me aware of my choices when buying wine. 4mo

Daisey @julieclair I did, and I also found it really interesting. I never would have realized choosing real cork was beneficial to the sustainability of the cork trees. 4mo

julieclair I know, right? But I will think about it now. 🍾 4mo

Cuilin I love starting my day with this book. I love the Major Oak tree in Sherwood Forest and I also love the road of trees in Northern Ireland. 5mo

TheBookHippie Yes! I loved that Theresienstadt was in the book and everyday I‘m in awe. Such a perfect book for the year! 5mo

CBee I need to catch up but am very much enjoying it! 5mo

AllDebooks @Cuilin I loved the Major Oak too, visited it many times. It is a lovely book. 😍 5mo

AllDebooks @TheBookHippie glad you like it. I like the variety of posts, so interesting. 5mo

AllDebooks @CBee no rush, just enjoy. X 5mo

Read4life I‘m just enjoying this book. I start my day with it out on the hammock with my coffee. It‘s just a perfect start to each new day. 5mo

AnnCrystal 🌱💝💝💝. 5mo

Faranae 😂 I think I'm the only one who doesn't like the book. I thought I would, but it doesn't go deep enough at all, and some of the trees I already knew about, I got annoyed because of how she talked about them (for example, focusing on the death of Kiidk'yaas instead of its part in Haida life, the saplings created from cuttings, the use of the wood in Six String Nation, etc).

It did give me something to track daily for Storygraph though! 5mo

dabbe I'm loving it and even got Matt reading it with me. 🤩 The only parts that sadden me, though, are the trees that no longer exist. 🥺 5mo

TEArificbooks I‘m loving it. I thought it was going to highlight a tree species a day but I like the specific trees. I thought the 11 bonsai trees was a cute story. 5mo

Daisey I‘m thoroughly enjoying this book as well! I don‘t tend to read it every day but about every 3 days I read a few days. I‘m not sure it‘s quite what I was expecting, but it‘s fascinating. 5mo

Seabreeze_Reader I'm enjoying the daily essays, although I sometimes miss a few days and then read multiple entries to catch up. I think the reading is just the right length and if I'm curious about finding out more info, I can do more research on my on. The stories of destruction do make me sad. How could someone manage to run over a lone tree in the middle of the Sahara dessert? It just boggles my mind. So far, I still like the Emancipation Oak entry the best. 5mo

kspenmoll My favorite entry for January is 01/04-The willow tree-always loved the weeping willows. 5mo

kspenmoll @TheBookHippie Loved this info too- there is so much in this book-I adore it & its a lovely way to start my day. 5mo

AllDebooks @Seabreeze_Reader @kspenmoll 😊 5mo

AllDebooks I enjoy the variety of posts, not just actual trees but stories, art, sculpture, literary references, and history. 5mo

I have been loving reading A Tree a Day with #naturalitsy. I took my book with me on our hike today to photograph with our state tree, the Palo Verde. This is not her prettiest time of year (check back in March or April for yellow flowers) but you can still see what makes her unique, a green trunk and green branches.

🌳 Photo taken at South Mountain Park, Arizona

TheBookHippie Nice! I am loving this book. 5mo

Kenyazero It's certainly an interesting read! Love this picture! 5mo

tpixie @Larkken @dabbe interesting book! You might like Lab Girl. Interesting tree info. Have you heard about Amy Stewart‘s

The Tree Collectors: Tales of Arboreal Obsession

Larkken @tpixie I love lab girl! One of my top 10 memoirs 😍 but I've not heard of the Stewart book - I'll look for it! Thanks 🥰 6mo

dabbe Haven't hear of either one! I'll have to look into them! 🩶🖤🩶 6mo

tpixie @Larkken @dabbe I read lab girl for a Bookclub and I was worried about not liking it, but I found it very interesting. I have not read Amy Stewart‘s book, but I did pre-order it and have it on my bookshelf! I put Tree a day down for me to purchase in November 2025. So it could be a goal for 2026! (edited) 6mo

TEArificbooks @Larkken @dabbe @tpixie I also have the tree collectors on my tbr shelf 6mo

I‘m all caught up on my daily trees, and I read December and January from The Wild Remedy.
Hoping to finish Joan Didion in Women‘s Lives tomorrow, and get more into The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store.

Thanks for asking @rachelsbrittain !
