Few more.

The last picture is of a tree. This tree was taken from one of the mansions in Newport. As I took my annual stroll of the grounds in awe of the giant mature specimens of trees they have I took this coffee cup size tree from under its mother. I dug up gently and put in coffee cup. I then planted in one of my nursery beds I keep for small stuff for a few years and eventually put it where I wanted it. I am pretty sure it is some kind of special beech and will reach maturity hopefully, long after I am gone. It is a beautiful tree and probably not one you would find very often.
