Glad that you are back. Was a fan since the beginning. A litlte sad that you deleted all the old posts since those bring back memories of how I felt when I read those posts. And wonderful pictures as always. Looking forward to the ‘fresh’ Childhood Flames.
a) Xylem vessels. Water travels up using a combination of pressure from the root system (osmosis) and suction from the leaves (due to transpiration).
