Dead wood and young growth





Today I visited the Edinburgh Botanic Gardens with my paternal Grandma.

It was as fine a spring day as Edinburgh is likely to offer and I was pleased to visit an ancient fossilised tree.

I also spied a large greenhouse full of lush vegetation. Thinking perhaps the warm air would help me to grow larger I spent some time there, having my sedan-chair wheeled around by my bearers, but sadly I was only a little taller by the end....
