About us

“The olive tree is my favorite because it symbolizes peace. Additionally, it is the reason we can enjoy olive oil, which I also happen to love.”

“My favourite tree is the Japanese maple—its leaves are super delicate and almost lace-like, and in the fall, they turn these amazing shades of red and gold. It’s just one of those trees that feels peaceful and kind of magical.”

“The chestnut tree holds a special place in my heart, as it was the first tree I planted with my dad in front of our house when I was just four. Majestic and resilient, chestnuts stand tall through the seasons, their lush canopy and sturdy branches symbolizing strength, endurance, and the beauty of nature.”

“The Frangipani (Plumeria) is my favourite tree because of its beautifully five-petal fragrant flowers in shades of white, pink, yellow, and red, its sweet scent, and the tropical, peaceful, and relaxing vibe it creates around it.”

“I have a soft spot for the Japanese maple. Its delicate leaves transform into the most stunning shades of red and orange in autumn, turning any landscape into a masterpiece. No matter the season, it always adds a touch of elegance and wonder.”

“My favourite trees have always been fruit trees. As a child, I loved climbing cherry, apricot, apple, and plum trees in my grandparents’ village, picking their fruit straight from the branches. Nowadays, I plant pear, apple, and plum trees with my son, passing on the joy rooted in those memories.”

“The Linden tree, which is a symbol of my hometown, is very special to me. Its flowers in late spring give off a lovely smell that makes the air feel calm. Because of this connection and its meaning, the Linden tree is my favourite. It stands for the peace and balance I try to find in my own life.”

“The oak is my favourite tree because of its strength, resilience, and deep-rooted history. I also love its broad canopy, seasonal beauty, and the way it provides shelter and sustenance for wildlife.”

“When I was visiting the Temples of Angkor Wat in Cambodia, I was really impressed by this strangler fig that was just taking over the abandoned temples. This symbolises the true strength of nature to me.”

“The mighty baobab is my favorite tree. Its enormous trunk and ability to store water for drought seasons make it a true survivor. Plus, its unique, upside-down appearance makes it look like something straight out of a fairytale.”

“I don’t like figs as a fruit, but I love fig trees. They remind me of summer Sundays at my grandparents’ house, sitting in the shade of one huge, leafy giant.”

“Being able to witness the elegant Magnolia tree in all her stages is my favorite part of our changing seasons. From flowery to green to completely bald, and then over and over again…”

“My favorite trees are of the mangrove family. With a complex salt filtration system and a wave-resilient root network they are able to live in harsh coastal conditions while providing shelter for both marine and terrestrial life.”

“I love birch trees and how they go through the annual cycle, sleeping leafless through the winters, bursting with life during springs, looking so lush and green in the summers and changing colours in the fall before shedding its leaves again.”

“The walnut tree holds a special place in my heart, carrying me back to the golden days of my childhood. I remember playing with my friends under its thick shade on hot summer days, feeling the cool relief, it provided. We used to pick the unripe, milky-green walnuts and enjoy their fresh taste, even though our hands would turn dark from the iodine in the shells.”

“The first time I stood beneath a sequoia, the way I saw nature shifted. There’s a presence in these giants that’s hard to explain—ancient, silent, almost otherworldly. Standing beneath one, you don’t just see nature’s power—you feel its wisdom.”

“Though I’m not gloomy, my favorite tree is the weeping willow. They often stand near water, look majestic, and yes, maybe it’s a bit about Pocahontas. Fun fact: they’re flood-resistant!”

“The acacia is my favorite tree because of its resilience and grace. Its deep roots and spreading branches are a testament to strength and growth, inspiring me every day.”

“The orange tree asks for nothing, and gives everything — scent, color, life. That is enough to be happy.”
