You see trees? — Presentation Transcript

… TREES? YOU SEE…

I see…

… a park,

… a home,

I see…

… a camouflage,

… a need for survival.

… a bearer of fruits to come,

… a safe sanctuary.

I see…

… a filter for the air we breathe and carbon dioxide absorber.

… a cooler and cleaner city,

… privacy with landscaped borders and boundaries,

The natural windbreaker and sound barrier. … peace.

… an investment. Landscaped homes are more valuable.

We see…

… a shady spot. Romance.

I see…

… fun! Shhhh !!! We are playing hide and seek.

I see Mummy’s baby container.

There is water inside this container. But you can’t kiss this one.

I learn that trees store some of the rain water . Trees can reduce the possibility of flooding.

I remember the first tree we planted in our home. I see…

The favorite choice… … the nostalgia.

… to remember a loved one by.

I see with passing of time…

… a big difference.

They don’t grow here like they used to.

Don’t you see that too?!!!

SEE ITS VALUES

Feel it! Smell it!

A season of new beginnings. You hear that too?

I can’t wait to taste that!

A walk at the park is so refreshing.

There are many herbal remedies from trees that many are unaware of.

can affect climate change… unsustainable deforestation

climate change can and will affect our lives…

Save plant life for our future.

Can you teach me how?

You can grow them from seeds.

Collect seeds from your friends and neighbours. Watch them grow in your garden.

Don’t throw away your cuttings. I trim excess growth regularly to encourage new growth.

Find a vase. Empty bottles will do too…

Fill them up with water. About 3/4 full will do.

Place cuttings in. Experiment will all kinds of cuttings. Will this work?

It takes about 5 days to see roots beginning to grow. Be Patient

Let’s grow more!

Nancy Poh , Blissfully maidless with kids at Love nest Thank you for sharing John Ruskin's thoughts, George. There are trees that have been here before this civilization. If trees allow us to live with them why can't we live amongst them? 2 years ago

George Sciberras Wouldn't it be nice if all followers commented on member's show. It shows a sign of friendship and appreciation. , PENSIONER at My own sweet home John Ruskin, 1819-1900, Modern Painters VI had this to say on the subject of TREES:- ........ Being thus prepared for us in all ways, and made beautiful, and good for food, and for building, and for instruments of our hands, this race of plants, deserving boundless affection and admiration from us, becomes, in proportion to their obtaining it, a nearly perfect test of our being in right temper of mind and way of life; so that no one can be far wrong in either who loves trees enough, and everyone is assuredly wrong in both who does not love them, if his life has brought them in his way.' 2 years ago

Nancy Poh , Blissfully maidless with kids at Love nest Thank you for your comments. I am glad to hear that my message is well received.

I think I should start a group where everyone can post their gardening tips. Here is one to start with:

If you don't want pest in your garden, grow stevia amongst your plants as it has pest repellant properties. Also, Stevia leaves can be dried and use as sweetener in your drinks or sauce. You can find many articles on how to grow and harvest stevia on eHow:
