The cashier said the nursery was offering those who purchased cut trees a certificate redeemable in the spring for a free pine seedling. End result: more green for everyone!<br /><br />The roots on the pine, as we were repotting, looked very much like the branches in this photo which, when viewed upside down, give the appearance of tree roots.<br /><br />What I enjoy most about this picture (besides the orange) are the long blue shadow lines in the background of the foreground.MamaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300520132972757396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-58376275567167545262010-12-20T01:47:24.212-06:002010-12-20T01:47:24.212-06:00I'm up way too late.
