Twisted wood

Trees grow in a most peculiar way sometimes,   almond trees  grow almost in a spiral which makes it extremely hard to cut,  the branches of a fig tree twist and turn together,  some trees manage to grow from the base of a large rock with roots exposed and no obvious source of water.  

Paco's pear tree split in half a few years ago but amazingly continues to grow and is now in full flower...



This fig tree is growing from a rock base,  close up it's roots look quite strange - you can almost see faces in there.



The twists and turns of a collapsed almond tree....
