Why a tree and not a bouquet

A bouquet is gone in a week. A tree planted on a birthday is still there on the thirtieth one.

That is the idea behind Plants for the Planet. The gift is small on the day, and it keeps giving: shade, oxygen, a home for birds, a reason to visit.

When the tree is planted we record its exact position and put it on a satellite map, so the gift is never abstract. You can look at the ground it stands on.
