I always find myself stopping to stare at the beautiful swamp cypress at Cambridge Botanics. The shape and colour spectrum of the ‘knees’ often put me in mind of something other … this time it was exotic ladies wearing wedding hijab.

Ladies of the Lake. What do you see?
Very creative, and certainly the most attractive cypress knees I’ve seen. I’ll have to look more closely at the ones around here to see if they’re ready to take up the challenge.
I bet they are! These knees are very neat though aren’t they? I find that tree trunk gazing is a bit like cloud spotting. There are always pictures.
Amazing trick.
Thank you
Amazing!
It is a tree that begs for comparisons I think.
Very cool! I’ll never see ‘knees’ the same again! 😉
Cheers … they are never the same Eliza. Last time I looked I was convinced that they were meerkats!
