Growing a pine from seed is not practical. It’s slow, fiddly, and you won’t see shade from it for decades. But honestly, that’s the point.
When you look at that tiny twig, you’re looking at a future giant that will outlive you. It’s oddly humbling. And it started because you stole a cone from a forest floor.
So go dig up a cone. Embrace the slow. Grow yourself a stubborn, prickly piece of forever. Just don’t forget to water it. (And maybe check your pockets more often.)
