This incredible tree is easily accessible on the beach at Kalaloch campground. In fact there are quite a few amazing natural features in this area. Kalaloch, meaning "a good place to land" in the Quinault language, has no shortage of natural areas to explore. The Pacific shoreline just below provides ample habitat for marine life: tide pools reveal crabs and sea urchins at low tide; sea otters float on the surface of submerged kelp beds; shorebirds nest on beaches; and whales and dolphins occasionally emerge offshore. Beyond the national park's 73 miles of coastline lie three national wildlife refuges and one marine sanctuary. Near the campground and lodge, trails and steps descend about 40 ft. to the beach. There are several beaches, tide pools, scenic overlooks and trails to explore. The Kalaloch Creek Nature Trail is a mile-long walk through the forest along Kalaloch Creek, which drains into the ocean. There are accessible lookout points at Ruby Beach and Beach Trail 4. Olympic National Park has much to explore, including temperate rain forests, ocean shores, sub-alpine mountains, lakes and more. The lush Hoh Rain Forest, as well as the towns of Queets, Quinault and Forks are within a 45-minute drive.

Artist Janaina Mello Landini (previously) continues to produce dizzyingly complex installations and canvas-based sculptural works comprised of unbraided ropes that branch out like tree roots. The fractal-like artworks have developed over six years as part of her “Ciclotrama” series, a word she coined that combines the root word “cycle” and the Latin word “trama” meaning warp, weaving, or cobweb.

Jorge Mayet's tree sculptures produced from paper, wire, fabric, and acrylic showcase the ways in which a tree’s roots often mimic the branches that sprout above ground. In these suspended works the underground systems are far more expansive than what appears above the earth, showing the viewer that what typically appears before us is only half of the real picture. Hanging from invisible wires, Mayet works are a conceptual connection to his own memories and roots growing up in Cuba, a visual metaphor for being uprooted from his home country. More

Text Appearing Before Image: haracter. Hence we will proceed at once to adiscussion of root distribution. THE ROOT SYSTEMS OF THE GRASSES. Over 60 individuals of the four dominant grasses were excavatedand examined. Three, Koeleria cristata, Poa sandhergii, and Festucaovina ingrata, are shallow-rooted, the bulk of the absorbing systemlying above the 18-inch level, while Agropyrum spicatum penetrates toa maximum depth of 4 feet 10 inches. Agropyrum spicatum.—This is the dominant bunchgrass in eastern Wash-ington. It has its best development westward of the high upland prairiesof extreme eastern Washington and along the rim-rock through the easternpart. The bunches are often 10 inches in diameter and reach a height of over3 feet. The plant blossoms in June and dries out in early July, only to takeon renewed growth after the autumn rains and to remain green all winter. This grass has coarser roots than any of the other three important nativegrasses. These coarse, fibrous roots have many short laterals. Some of the Text Appearing After Image: THE PRAIRIES OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. 33 roots reach a depth of 4 feet 10 inches, although on an average 4 feet 2 incheswas the greatest depth attained. Festuca ovina ingrata.—The blue bunchgrass ranks in importance withAgropyrum on the well-developed high prairies west of the foothills of theBitterroot Mountains between Spokane, Washington, and Lewiston, Idaho.Because of its abundance the very appropriate name Palouse (Fr. pelouse, aland clothed with a short, thick growth of herbage) was early applied to thisregion. The whole plant dries out considerably by the middle of July, but theautumn rains revive it and it is green throughout the rest of the year. Festuca ovina has a great mass of jet-black roots which occupy the soilthoroughly from the surface to a depth of about 18 inches, below which depthrelatively few roots extend. None of the roots are over 1 mm. in diameter.They branch profusely to the third order mostly, and the laterals are usuallyless than an inch in length.

I photographed these Giant Fig Trees Roots in Kauai, Hawaii. (This is a Moreton Bay Fig, or Ficus macrophylla -- a Banyan tree native to Australia.) I wanted to emphasis it's massive roots. Their size and sprawling nature were accentuated by forced perspective, achieved through using a wide angle lens (17mm, or 24mm equivalent). Including the round lava rocks in the foreground also adds interest. See how large these roots are next to a human!

Selections from a beautifully illustrated 15th century version of the 'Tractatus de Herbis', a book produced to help apothecaries and physicians from different linguistic backgrounds identify plants they used in their daily medical practice. No narrative text is present in this version, simply pictures and the names of each plant written in various languages - a technique which revolutionised botanical literature, allowing as it did for easier transcultural exchanges of scientific knowledge. This particular 'Tractaus de Herbis', thought to date from around about 1440 AD and known as Sloane 4016 (its shelf-mark in the British Library), hails from the Lombardy
This tree grows its roots down into the cenote, a cave holding a freshwater lake, as long as 10-15 meters. And the lucky tourist can take a swim in the cooling water. Ez a fa a cenote vizéhez növeszti le a gyökereit. A cenote egy olyan barlang, amelyben kisebb-nagyobb tó található. Ilyenekből több ezer van Mexikó déli részén, és sokban fürödni is lehet.
Tree slice art, made from a real tree. Each print is made by hand by printing directly from the roots of a tree. This tree grew in a beautiful area in the Wasatch Mountains near the town of Huntsville and at the foot of the Snow Basin Ski Resort. The wood that is used to make the prints is gathered from already fallen trees. As an artist, my purpose is to reveal the artistry that exists in nature and to present it in a way that is accessible enough to hang on a wall in your home. I also want to bring our attention to our impact on the landscapes that surround us. These tree ring prints help us see our place in a much larger historical context and hopefully each ring makes us reflect on the limited time that we have in this beautiful landscape. Each print is like a fingerprint from mother nature. All prints are made by hand using the traditional woodblock method. Frame sold separately. This listing: Material: 100lb acid free paper Size: 18x24 Type: Pine Paint: High quality textured ink. Ships in a sturdy tube. Signed by artist Inquire about custom orders and wholesale options.
UK-based artist Tach Pollard transforms gnarled tree roots into fantastical creatures inspired by European folklore. The sleek sculptures have spindly legs and long cloaks, which give them each an air of mystery. Pollard began collecting tree roots when he was a child, but didn’t start carving them until much later in life. He predominantly works with oak tree roots, but has recently begun to work with hawthorn in the last few years. “Hawthorn is a mystical tree with much folklore attached, such as stories about how Merlin the magician was eternally trapped in a hawthorn tree, explains Pollard.

Written by John Ernest Weaver (1884 – 1966), an American biologist and prairie ecologist, the book focuses on the roots of more than 140 native American plant species in desert climates. His aim … Continue reading "Mapping Netherworlds: The Ecological Relations of Roots by John Ernest Weaver (1919)"
