My mum and dad were given a pine cone years ago when I was only small, by my nan and grandpa (my grandpa being an avid gardener). My mum loves trees so she gave growing it a go - it now stands tallest in our garden and full of squirrel and bird life. I found my nanny’s well thumbed old tree book from 1974, earlier this year and managed to work out the other day that our lovely tree is a Scots Pine 🌲 Books and trees are a little bit like time travel - the book helped my nan in her scouting days decades ago, and now a couple of generations down it’s still being used hey and their pine cone is still growing strong and enjoying its days in the garden 🍃 #Family #ScotsPine #BooksAndTrees #Nature https://www.instagram.com/p/By4fzTOAsax/?igshid=1c04f7okbm3e3
