Sometimes one can laugh when walking through the garden... We can observe funny things in nature. Our Live Oak or Quercus Virginiana has been hugging itself from the beginning on. A true TREE HUGGER!
Funny sight isn't it?
You can see the tree here below in a previous post:

Dearest Mriette,
ReplyDeleteOh, never have I seen anything like this, either. Wow, Hugging itself from the beginning on; the true TREE HUGGER warms our heart, just wishing that no harm for the tree.
Sending you lots of love and hugs from Japan to my dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
Dearest Miyako,
DeleteWe have never seen it before either; very special and warm in a way. The root loop will grow along with the rest of the tree trunk; no harm or whatsoever!
Hugs to you dear friend.
Mariette

Oh wow I've never seen something like this!
ReplyDeleteThe tree hugging itself, how intersting...and cute!
It also kind of looks like the tree is wearing a ring :-)
Dearest Tamago,
DeleteWe neither, that's why I wanted to share this!
Yeah, looks like a tight hug or like wearing jewelry...
Hugs,
Mariette
Dit is inderdaad heel speciaal. nog nooit gezien, en ik heb toch al heel wat vreemde 'planten' gezien.
ReplyDeleteBeste Marian,
DeleteJa, jullie hebben al héél wat zien groeien maar dit is inderdaad een unikum.
Liefs,
Mariette
Ken het ook niet, is dat zo gegroeid? Verstikt de boom zich niet door deze tak? Ken het nederlandse woord niet. Schijnt wel bijzonder te zijn hè?
ReplyDeleteGroetjes Janny
Beste Janny,
DeleteNee hoor, deze boomwortel verstikt de boomstam echt niet. Het is geen tak hoor; die zitten boven. En die boomwortel groeit net zo hard als de stam dus ze gaan mooi samen op; innig omhelzend.
Liefs,
Mariette
Nature is really amazing !!! I have never seen such an odd tree before !!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week , dearest Mariette !!! Hugs , Niki
Dearest Niki,
DeleteOh, if we only have our eyes open, we can find little miracles all around us.
Happy weekend to you dear friend.
Hugs,
Mariette
Hello Mariette, I have spent lots of time in the woods studying trees, and your unusual live-oak is definitely a first. It's lucky it grew in a yard where it was destined to be appreciated.
ReplyDelete--Jim
Dearest Jim,
DeleteIndeed it is being very much appreciated and maybe that's its showing to mankind...
Happy weekend to you.
Hugs,
Mariette

Mariette
Lieve Mariette,
ReplyDeleteEen speling van de natuur...
als deze boom in containerpot opgekweekt is voordat hij in de volle grond gezet werd kan het zijn dat een wortel is gaan rondgroeien om zijn stam,goed mogelijk wanneer de stam nog verder blootgelegd wordt dat er nog meer van die ''knuffelwortels'' zitten rond de stam.
Grappig en bijzonder om te zien,dat wel!!
Mariette jij bent in deze dagen in mijn gedachte en ik wens je veel goeds!!!!
Dikke knuffel van ons en lieve groet!!!
Ger
Lieve Ger,
DeleteWe weten niet precies meer hoe deze er als baby in de pot, jaren geleden, uit zag... Maar het is inderdaad een pracht 'knuffelwortel'!
Heel veel lieve groetjes terug.
Fijn weekend.
Mariette
Wonderful gift of nature to make you smile, Mariette! Hugs xoxo
ReplyDeleteDearest Karen,
DeleteIt indeed does make one smile!
Hugs and happy weekend.
Mariette
