I'm not bald. I'm just taller than my hair.

It's true, people don't imagine I'd be particularly woody.

I like to think of myself as a natural gardener.

If you look at it ecologically, deforestation is high on the list of things which bring devastation. You cut down trees to build homes, for fuel, and you end up with no trees left, and you have to move on. If you take the earth as a whole, eventually there's nowhere to move on to.

Gardening has just sort of grown on me. I find it therapeutic. And I like smelly things.

I'm pale-skinned so I don't feel at my best on a beach.

Schoolchildren and older people like the idea of planting trees. For children, it's interesting that an acorn will grow into an oak, and for older people it's a legacy. And the act of planting a tree is not that difficult.
