Above: a Cedar Of Lebanon tree at Ballinderry, County Tipperary – Ireland’s sole contender in the 2015 Tree Of The Year Competition.
Of which Stephen Hennelly writes:
Poor showing from Ireland this year although I’m still ‘rooting’ for us
to win.

Last.

It is the nicest tree in Ireland, in fairness.
Cad a dhéanfaimid feasta gan aidhmid?
Tá deireadh na gcomórtas ar lár.
Ballinderry? Also, is that Matt Fogarty?
I love that this is a thing!
Comparing that thing to what deh google images shows me for “Cedar Of Lebanon” made me feel sad for the tree.
Probably make good kindling tho.
They’re barking up the wrong tree with this one.
I wooden be too sure about that.
can we just leaf this subject now?
Oh my god, that photo and accompanying story are the saddest funny things I have seen in a while. Well done all involved.
It’s a shame we didn’t branch out a bit
Big DEAL.
I feel sorry for the tree in Estonia thats in the middle of a football pitch..
