A large rhododendron grows out of the rootball of an oak. These companions are way too close for comfort, but they illustrate now little impact oaks have on their neighbors. |
Naomis are very sensitive to drying out, yet this large plant has survived beside an eighteen inch red oak. This picture was taken on a 90 degree day, and other Naomis far away from trees had leaves curled just as much. Although its days are numbered, it has grown and flowered here for 35 years. | ![]() |
