Many gardeners are also collectors. Collectors of things like pots, books, seeds, and - of course - plants. Some plant collecting gardeners collect flowers, shrubs, herbs or seeds. Others collect trees – and when writer, artist and curious human Amy Stewart, award winning author of Flower Confidential, Wicked Plants, and The Drunken Botanist, ran into more and more humans who collected trees in various ways – she started to collect stories about them. In her newest book, The Tree Collectors, Tales of Arboreal Obsession (out now from Random House), which she researched, wrote and illustrated, Amy shares much of more about these tree-collecting people, including what they can teach us about trees, and about humanity - from fascinating motivations to moving outcomes.
