For Tree Blogs, Go Here!



Hi everybody! This is just a reminder that I now post tree-related articles on my photography blog, under the Julie's trees category.

Above, a paper birch on 40th Street, about to be planted in a garden atrium at The New York Times.

Come on over!
Peace, jules

Memorial Day in Metuchen



Fans of the purple leaf plum soap opera know that this tree, as seen in my yard, is also known as "Gregory's Tree." And Gregory has built quite a fan base as well with his cute pictures and poems. You can hear Gregory's sweet little 6-year-old voice on this year's Memorial Day slide show. It's not really tree-related, but Memorial Day in Metuchen is near and dear to my heart, as are my trees, so come have a look. I'm SO proud of Gregory for working on that little voice over! (You'll notice in the credits, however, that he is listed as "Greg." I'm really not quite sure when THAT happened!)

Click here for the 2007 Memorial Day slide show.
Be sure to turn up the sound! Peace, Julie
