#71 - Plant a tree



Even though I call myself a nature lover, I have never before planted a tree.
Mainly because I thought you can only „plant” a tree if you use a sapling. Seeds just didn’t cut it.


But recently I saw a photo by Greenpeace that gave me hope. Further research revealed that an apple seed has a 30% change of growing up. Good enough for me.

A few apples later I had a bunch of perfect apple seeds. I used 6 of them, so math says that I should have at least one seed grow up. Maybe two.


Now, I don’t know if I planted them correctly, but they will have enough water, air and sunlight.  Guess I’ll have to wait until next year to be able to say whether my little seeds survived.
