I think I'd be a rowan tree, they're not massive, but small elegant and gracefull, they have lovely leaves and berries and live on the edge of forests rather than in the middle.
I want to be an oak tree.
I have a rowan in my front garden, which is small and slender and shivers in the wind, and then grows orange fruits.
I have got into tree planting lately. I have planted many in the last year and look forward to seeing them grow. Some have been more successful than others. I love seeing them get bigger and become independent.
The newest one I planted is a yew, and I like to think how it might still be here in 700 years, even if my house is not.
I've planted 16 trees since I've been in this house and numerous shrubs and bushes.
