A beautiful childhood grows from a beautiful heart.

My nieces would love this. Very nice.

This is a beautiful design! What a wonderful shirt this would make!

Perhaps without the creme background, and up a little higher.

5 $$

took me a while to notice the heart, I love it.

I hope this one goes on sale SOON. Beautiful creation, genius.

I really love this shirt, $5

I agree, without the cream background, just the tree, child and flowery bits, no background - straight on to the tee - then straight to the printers! Awesome idea! 5$

GREAT $5

Absolutely gorgeous design, however I think the stars aren't necessary. $5

It's sweet. I really like it :)

Thanks for the comment everyone. It's my first submission, so your input is really valuable for me. THANKS !!

I would so buy this.

Oh ilove this. i'm giving you a golden star, nice work.

i agree...no creme backgroung would release the tree and the kid.

amazinggggggggggggggggggg



i would buy 2

i love this! anything w/ trees works for me!

Awesome

I wouldn't wear it. Bit I like the concept. Maybe make the whole shirt creme. The image might get lost in the grey.

I really like the design, but I think it might be a bit too big (not by a lot, just a bit)

I meant big on the shirt! the picture itself is fine by itself.

I love this design so much $5. And I do like the starry bits, they give off a feeling of.. i don't know... childhood? magic? I love them anyway!

i would like it more if you got rid of the heart...4

the heart is quite a used theme, maybe something else? but good design overall

beautifull indeed...5$

Love the design. $5

I'm in love with that tee. Can I get it for xmas? Please please please...! Really cool design and the palette is great, I dig these greens! $5.

Thank you for the Comment everyone.



Kllis, of course you can have it for Christmas.

Let's hope it gets printed ok ... Thanks for the Vote Kllis

I'd rather not have the heart. I don't think the design needs it. It looks a little weird . . .

5$ as is

very cute

:) Great idea. $5

LOVE IT! Absolutely beautiful. Prefer it on the white - $5!

Good idea, I would def buy it without the person on the swing =)

i think it needs the title on the shirt

i love this!! $5, i love the beautiful heart part.

Thanks for the comments ... I wonder if the shirt will make sense without the heart of the kid on the swing.



I design this while I was thinking about the t-shirt industry. How a lot of t-shirt company send their design to china to be produced in sweat shops that empl



Hopefully this idea grows just how the t-shirt is … Grow from the heart.



There goes my concept description ... LOL ... Once again Thanks everyone, your inputs and comments mean the world for me.

I really like this t-shirt. It'd be cool if the graphic was smaller.. I feel like this is such a descreete notion that it'd be great up near where a person's heart is. The idea is gorgeous and very well excuted. I like the light colors and the shirt color. They all fit well together.

btw I like the whole design as is >.> Cause I noticed people saying to take background or heart out. I like those elements. Just a bit smaller would be great, because I'm really not into wearing huge huge graphics. I like people to come and see what's there & get a little bit closer if they want to know >.> And I feel that this shirt is one of those kinds of shirts :) thx ^^;; It's personal philosophy/opinion..

A tree is a large, perennial, woody plant. Though there is no set definition regarding minimum size, the term generally applies to plants at least 6 m (20 ft) high at maturity and, more importantly, having secondary branches supported on a single main stem or trunk with clear apical dominance (see shrub for comparison). Compared with most other plant forms, trees are long-lived. A few species of trees grow to 100 m (328 ft) tall and some can live for several thousand years.



Trees are important components of the natural landscape due to their prevention of erosion and significant elements in landscaping and agriculture, both for their aesthetic appeal and their orchard crops (such as apples). Wood from trees is a common building material. Trees also play an intimate role in many of the world's mythologies (see trees in mythology).

A tree is a plant form that occurs in many different orders and families of plants. Trees thus show a wide variety of growth form, leaf type and shape, bark characteristics, reproductive structures, etc.



The earliest trees were tree ferns and horsetails, which grew in vast forests in the Carboniferous Period; tree ferns still survive, but the only surviving horsetails are not of tree form. Later, in the Triassic Period, conifers, ginkgos, cycads and other gymnosperms appeared, and subsequently flowering plants in the Cretaceous Period. Most species of trees today are flowering plants and conifers. The listing below gives examples of many well-known trees and how they are typically classified.



A small group of trees growing together is called a grove or copse, and a landscape covered by a dense growth of trees is called a forest. Several biotopes are defined largely by the trees that inhabit them; examples are rainforest and taiga (see ecozones). A landscape of trees scattered or spaced across grassland (usually grazed or burned over periodically) is called a savanna.



[edit] Morphology

Leaves are an important feature of trees. These are Beech leaves.

Tree roots anchor the structure and provide water and nutrients. The ground has eroded away around the roots of this young Pine tree.



The basic parts of a tree are the roots, trunk(s), branches, twigs and leaves. Tree stems consist mainly of support and transport tissues (xylem and phloem). Wood consists of xylem cells, and bark is made of phloem and other tissues external to the vascular cambium.



Trees may be broadly grouped into exogenous and endogenous trees according to the way in which their stem diameter increases. Exogenous trees, which comprise the great majority of modern trees (all conifers, and all broadleaf trees), grow by the addition of new wood outwards, immediately under the bark. Endogenous trees, mainly in the monocotyledons (e.g. palms), grow by addition of new material inwards.



As an exogenous tree grows, it creates growth rings. In temperate climates, these are commonly visible due to changes in the rate of growth with temperature variation over an annual cycle. These rings can be counted to determine the age of the tree, and used to date cores or even wood taken from trees in the past; this practice is known as the science of dendrochronology. In some tropical regions with constant year-round climate, growth is continuous and distinct rings are not formed, so age determination is impossible. Age determination is also impossible in endogenous trees.



The roots of a tree are generally embedded in earth, providing anchorage for the above-ground biomass and absorbing water and nutrients from the soil. It should be noted, however, that while ground nutrients are essential to a tree's growth the majority of its biomass comes from carbon dioxide absorbed from the atmosphere (see photosynthesis). Above ground, the trunk gives height to the leaf-bearing branches, aiding in competition with other plant species for sunlight. In many trees, the arrangement of the branches optimizes exposure of the leaves to sunlight.



Not all trees have all the plant organs or parts mentioned above. For example, most palm trees are not branched, the saguaro cactus of North America has no functional leaves, tree ferns do not produce bark, etc. Based on their general shape and size, all of these are nonetheless generally regarded as trees. Indeed, sometimes size is the more important consideration. A plant form that is similar to a tree, but generally having smaller, multiple trunks and/or branches that arise near the ground, is called a shrub. However, no sharp differentiation between shrubs and trees is possible. Given their small size, bonsai plants would not technically be 'trees', but one should not confuse reference to the form of a species with the size or shape of individual specimens. A spruce seedling does not fit the definition of a tree, but all spruces are trees. Bamboos by contrast, do show most of the characteristics of trees, yet are rarely called trees.



[edit] Champion trees



The world's champion trees can be considered on several factors; height, trunk diameter or girth, total size, and age. It is significant that in each case, the top position is always held by a conifer, though a different species in each case; in most measures, the second to fourth places are also held by conifers.



Tallest trees



The heights of the tallest trees in the world have been the subject of considerable dispute and much (often wild) exaggeration. Modern verified measurement with laser rangefinders combined with tape drop measurements made by tree climbers, carried out by the U.S. Eastern Native Tree Society has shown that most older measuring methods and measurements are unreliable, often producing exaggerations of 5% to 15% above the real height. Historical claims of trees of 114 m, 117 m, 130 m, and even 150 m, are now largely disregarded as unreliable, fantasy or outright fraud. The following are now accepted as the top five tallest reliably measured species:



1. Coast Redwood Sequoia sempervirens: 115.55 m (378.1 ft.), Redwood National Park, California (Gymnosperm Database)

2. Coast Douglas-fir Pseudotsuga menziesii: 100.3 m (329.1 ft.), Brummit Creek, Coos County, Oregon (Gymnosperm Database)

3. Sitka Spruce Picea sitchensis: 96.7 m (317.3 ft.), Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, California (Gymnosperm Database)

4. Giant Sequoia Sequoiadendron giganteum: 94.9 m (307.1 ft.), Redwood Mountain Grove, Kings Canyon National Park, California (Gymnosperm Database)

5. Australian Mountain-ash Eucalyptus regnans: 92.0 m (301.8 ft.), Styx Valley, Tasmania (Forestry Tasmania [pdf file]; also reported, less verifiably, as 97.0 m Tasmanian Giant Trees)

Stoutest trees



The girth (circumference) of a tree is – or at least should be – much easier to measure than the height, as it is a simple matter of stretching a tape round the trunk, and pulling it taut to find the circumference. Despite this, UK tree author Alan Mitchell made the following comment about measurements of yew trees in the British Isles:



"The aberrations of past measurements of yews are beyond belief. For example, the tree at Tisbury has a well-defined, clean, if irregular bole at least 1.5 m long. It has been found to have a girth which has dilated and shrunk in the following way: 11.28 m (1834 Loudon), 9.3 m (1892 Lowe), 10.67 m (1903 Elwes and Henry), 9.0 m (1924 E. Swanton), 9.45 m (1959 Mitchell) .... Earlier measurements have therefore been omitted".



As a general standard, tree girth is taken at 'breast height'; this is defined differently in different situations, with most foresters measuring girth at 1.3 m above ground, while ornamental tree measurers usually measure at 1.5 m above ground; in most cases this makes little difference to the measured girth. On sloping ground, the "above ground" reference point is usually taken as the highest point on the ground touching the trunk, but some use the average between the highest and lowest points of ground. Some of the inflated old measurements may have been taken at ground level. Some past exaggerated measurements also result from measuring the complete next-to-bark measurement, pushing the tape in and out over every crevice and buttress.



Modern trends are to cite the tree's diameter rather than the circumference; this is obtained by dividing the measured circumference by π; it assumes the trunk is circular in cross-section (an oval or irregular cross-section would result in a mean diameter slightly greater than the assumed circle). This is cited as dbh (diameter at breast height) in tree literature.



A further problem with measuring baobabs Adansonia is that these trees store large amounts of water in the very soft wood in their trunks. This leads to marked variation in their girth over the year, swelling to a maximum at the end of the rainy season, minimum at the end of the dry season. Although baobabs have some of the highest girth measurements of any trees, no accurate measurements are currently available, but probably do not exceed 10-11 m diameter.



The stoutest species in diameter, excluding baobabs, are:



1. Montezuma Cypress Taxodium mucronatum: 11.42 m, Árbol del Tule, Santa Maria del Tule, Oaxaca, Mexico (A. F. Mitchell, International Dendrology Society Year Book 1983: 93, 1984).

2. Giant Sequoia Sequoiadendron giganteum: 8.85 m, General Grant tree, Grant Grove, California (Gymnosperm Database)

3. Coast Redwood Sequoia sempervirens: 7.44 m, Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, California (Gymnosperm Database)



Largest trees



The largest trees in total volume are those which are both tall and of large diameter, and in particular, which hold a large diameter high up the trunk. Measurement is very complex, particularly if branch volume is to be included as well as the trunk volume, so measurements have only been made for a small number of trees, and generally only for the trunk. No attempt has ever been made to include root volume.



The top four species measured so far are (Gymnosperm Database):



1. Giant Sequoia Sequoiadendron giganteum: 1489 m³, General Sherman

2. Coast Redwood Sequoia sempervirens: 1045 m³, Del Norte Titan tree

3. Western Redcedar Thuja plicata: 500 m³, Quinault Lake Redcedar

4. Kauri Agathis australis: 400 m³, Tane Mahuta tree (total volume, including branches, 516.7 m³)



However, the Alerce Fitzroya cupressoides, as yet un-measured, may well slot in at third or fourth place, and Montezuma Cypress Taxodium mucronatum is also li



Oldest trees



The oldest trees are determined by growth rings, which can be seen if the tree is cut down or in cores taken from the edge to the centre of the tree. Accurate determination is only possible for trees which produce growth rings, generally those which occur in seasonal climates; trees in uniform non-seasonal tropical climates grow continuously and do not have distinct growth rings. It is also only possible for trees which are solid to the centre of the tree; many very old trees become hollow as the dead heartwood decays away. For some of these species, age estimates have been made on the basis of extrapolating current growth rates, but the results are usually little better than guesswork or wild speculation.



The verified oldest measured ages are (Gymnosperm Database):



1. Great Basin Bristlecone Pine Pinus longaeva: 4844 years

2. Alerce Fitzroya cupressoides: 3622 years

3. Giant Sequoia Sequoiadendron giganteum: 3266 years

4. Huon-pine Lagarostrobos franklinii: 2500 years

5. Rocky Mountains Bristlecone Pine Pinus aristata: 2435 years



Other species suspected of reaching exceptional age include European Yew Taxus baccata (probably over 3000 years) and Western Redcedar Thuja plicata.



The oldest verified age for an angiosperm tree is 2293 years for the Sri Maha Bodhi Sacred Fig (Ficus religiosa) planted in 288 BC at Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka; this is also the oldest human-planted tree with a known planting date.

[edit] Life stages

A moss-covered tree.

A moss-covered tree.



The life cycles of trees, especially conifers, are divided into the following stages in forestry for survey and documentation purposes, though the boundaries between stages vary among foresters:



1. Seed

2. Seedling: the above-ground part of the embryo that sprouts from the seed

3. Sapling: After the seedling reaches 1 m tall, and until it reaches 7 cm in stem diameter

4. Pole: young trees from 7–30 cm diameter

5. Mature tree: over 30 cm diameter, reproductive years begin

6. Old tree: dominate old growth forest; height growth slows greatly, with majority of productivity in seed production

7. Overmature: dieback and decay become common

8. Snag: standing dead wood

9. Log/debris: fallen dead wood



Tree diameters are measured at height of between 1.3–1.5 m above the highest point on the ground at its base (known as "breast height"). The 7 cm diameter definition is economically based, from the smallest saleable stem size (for paper production, etc), and the 30 cm diameter is the smallest base diameter for sawlogs. Each stage may be uniquely perceptive to different pathogens and suitable for especially adapted arboreal animals.

So physically speakign the improbablity in th parathesias stage of the tree it could not grow a swing.

5!

i really loved this until i saw the heart, which is just soooo overdone...but you took a cliched idea and added some originality to it. i can't help digging it.

good stuff!! i would probably buy this

definitely a 5. (:

hooray nigel - this is sooo cute! can't wait to buy it :)

Thank you so much Kara ... I hope it gets printed ...

Thanks everyone !!

very good design, the only suggestion i'd have is trim off some of the bottom left sky, to help keep it looking like a box. or just one of the corners, anyone works.

Nigel: I'm glad you got something going on Threadless! Looks great. Nice work. Happy it was still eligible for voting after I got back from holiday...!

Thanks Antonio ... How was the driving trip?

awesome shirt and should definitely be made

Fresh and clean. Excellent as usual!

I absolutely love this design. It reminds me of growing up... I'd definitely get this! Great work!!

I just am not a fan of the whole realistic human heart...but the rest of the shirt wow

Lovely...

Nice... very nice!

Good Job Bro... Keep it up. -w-
