Elm tree for me. And the caption fits perfectly. In fact it is one of my three favorite trees for bonsai, maybe first of the three.

I'm the Lime. Which isn't too inaccurate. I have one, too, that I really like that I got from a fellow club member a couple years ago. I might look at it differently now

Fir tree (Mysterious) -- extraordinary taste, handles stress well, loves anything beautiful, stubborn, tends to care for those close to them, hard to trust others, yet a social butterfly, likes idleness and laziness after long demanding hours at work, rather modest, talented, unselfish, many friends, very reliable.


Ok so this is mine

Shhhhh.. that's the secret! They make the descriptions so broad and rather flattering, with little smatters of criticism thrown in, that people enjoy believing that theirs really does reflect something in their own personality.

If mine doesn't say "hates housework and really stinks at it, would rather read a book than watch TV, knows countless trivia answers but can't balance the checkbook, will spend hours on small, tedious projects but forgets what day of the week it is....." well, then I know it's too general.

Okay, so who are you all, really?

lol Mine should say; "Puts off important things to pursue countless unfinished projects and flighty whims, often gets distracted, is self-absorbed, and maintains an inconsistent work ethic..."

Too bad we don't live closer together, Michelle. We could have a lot of fun.

True dat. But as my hubby tells me about one of my sister-in-laws, "You two shouldn't be left alone together. You could cause too much trouble." He and my brother-in-law think they have to keep us wives separated...

Pine Tree (Peacemaker) -- loves agreeable company, craves peace and harmony, loves to help others, active imagination, likes to write poetry, not fashion conscious, great compassion, friendly to all, falls strongly in love but will leave if betrayed or lied to.

I love haiku poetry, but I am more inclined towards stories, and I am so in love with my girlfriend right now it hurts! This is awsome!

Note to self... Buy a Pine...
