The British have always been good at tree shaping. An impressive horticultural practice that involves training, bending, and pruning young trees to grow into specific artistic or structural forms like arches, fences, or abstract living sculptures. It is achieved through a combination of formative pruning, framing, and approach grafting. Bygone Britain saw this in abundance, whilst today, it's a rare sight. So beautiful were our surroundings in bygone England that we worked to improve upon them. This mindset now exists among very few people as opposed to it being a nationwide policy. Say what you like, England would look a lot better if people went back to art forms that work with nature instead of accepting the cold, steel buildings that have numbed the minds of all those who live or work, within, or around them. This is what we mean when we talk about quintessential England. ⏳️🤝
