You thought we just grew and cut roses? Nah, we’re out here doing all our own maintenance too- lifting heavy stuff, operating chain saws, basically becoming part-time gardeners/construction workers! More about the fallen tree soon. 😔 power

Inosculation is when two trees form together as one. It happens when two trees touch and their bark wears away, causing them to graft together. This process can take many years!

Inosculation is derived from the Latin osculum, which means kiss. In Greek mythology, Zeus and Mercury turns a couple named Baucis and Philemon into two entwined trees when they die. Philemon takes the form of an oak and Baucis a lime tree. 🌳

Who has been lucky enough to see this formation?
