I have visited the Shetland Islands and the Outer Hebrides. Both lie to the north west of Scotland in a truly windswept part of the world. I couldn’t understand why I felt so depressed during these visits but I subsequently discovered it was the absence of trees across both islands that had a negative effect on my mood. I love trees and the more that are around me, the better I feel.
OLDEST EXOTIC TREE IN NZ
The historic pear tree in Kerikeri is the sole survivor of 185 fruit trees and grape vines planted by Rev John Butler when the Kerikeri Mission Station was established in 1819. The beautiful old tree is the oldest surviving exotic tree in New Zealand, and is into its third century of life. It has survived the musket wars, the threat of fire and several major floods over the past two centuries. This year, it has been nominated for the first ever “Tree of the year”
