Thank you for these very fine and prudent introductions to native trees in Ireland - I look forward to sharing them with my Life Sciences students here in Vienna.
Phenomenal Information on the Native Trees and Presented in such an engaging way. I am trying to make some Tree related videos on my own channel and this information really helps. Will be sure to watch all your Tree videos. These videos are an absolute storehouse of wisdom. Thank you very much.
Very interesting. I didn't know that the original Wych Elm woods of Ireland never fully recovered from the elm disease epidemic of 3000BC ! Hmm, something to think about with regard to the modern Dutch Elm disease. At least it gives hope that eventually more resistant strains may emerge naturally. Assuming of course, that the recent epidemic wasn't caused by man, such as by air pollution - acid rain and heavy metals, which seem to be disrupting soil chemistry.
Thank you! Three more episodes to come soon, Aspen, Birch and Rowan You can currently find the first three and soon all six at naturenorthwest.ie/nature-with-your-children/ Follow NatureNorthWest on facebook to find out when they are released.
Pop them straight into a pot with some healthy compost, leave outside and keep watered. Simple as that. I have had great success growing them from seed this way. I put about team seed in a row in a window box and repot in individual pots the following year. Expect them to appear in late summer if they germinate. You need to plant them immediately when they fall from the tree as the seed does not seem to stay viable for long. Good luck with it!
hmmm, I wonder about the names of the trees...they are nearly the same, than in german. BUT ...would You give thist poor buckeye a new name, please? That´s not farir..such a beautiful tree and such an awful name...brrrrr. It always reminds me to a slaughterhouse... May I do a suggestion? The name in german is very near to the latin, but the name for the blossoms is "Kerzen", so candles...woud You mind to name this wonderful tree "Candletree" it makes sense somehow..isn´t it?
Very interesting tactile identification. Extremely sad seeing a man stood in a totally denuded landscape talking about a species that is also dying. Ash being now in a similar position of elm 40 years ago. This landscape has been trashed
I can happily listen to this man read a list of names from the Boston phone book. Another beautiful video in the series. Thank you !
Amazing series so far. Look forward to the rest
Brilliant. Wonderful beings full of love, power and hierarchy

So sad about the death of these beautiful trees
I know they've actually become one of my favourite trees because there so endangered.
Wych means 'wood'. I have some in my hedges.
Does it ? I've heard that it means pliable or flexible.
Can I get the whole series
Brilliant videos! Will you be uploading other episodes in this series soon?

@@rathmullanwatersportsschoo6776 Lovely - looking forward to those!
How do I grow these? I have a pile of seeds.

One video said that the seeds are only viable for about 3 weeks after falling from the tree.

Wrong tree mate. Candles are Horse Chestnut blossoms.

Thr damage that humanity can do to landscape is amazing.
