this week kits blog and her post took me to an older post at loose and leafy
as a result i have become a
tree follower
you can go and read the idea behind it but the rough around the edges idea is to select a particular tree and follow its life through a year.
so i have chosen the rowan.
actually the rowan that we planted in our sacred garden the first year we moved here, when it was little more than a small twig with a few roots.
its first fuzzy buds in, i think, 2009...
look closely to the left of the photo and you can see the tiny rowan...
this was taken last summer...
this is just an introductory post to my year following my rowan as i am cutting this post short due to painful hands...
i shall tell you more about me and the rowan next time...

I love this idea! I look forward to seeing more pictures of your Rowan! Hope the pain eases soon.
I love rowan trees and have one in my garden that I planted when it was much the same size as yours was. I suppose I ought to become a tree follower as well:)
Hope your hands are feeling more like yours soon.Look forward to your posts of your Rowan tree,I love trees.Love Jill xx
