Trees are very important part of our lives. They change carbon dioxide into the oxygen we breathe, they sequester carbon, and they provide shelter. There are so many reasons for which we should all respect and give thanks to the trees around us, but in this article, all we’ll focus on is how amazing, huge and beautiful some of them look that we cannot help but notice them.
Here are 16 beautiful trees in the world for your inspiration.
1. Canadian Rhododendron
Every landscape gardener knows rhododendrons are sweet smelling flowering bushes. This 125-year-old tree in Canada, however, would beg to differ on that “bush” classification.
2. Japanese Wisteria
This striking wisteria in Japan is 144 years old and looks like purple rain frozen mid-fall.
