ASMR - Forest Walk: Wonder of Trees

Soft Spoken ASMR bedtime story about plants and trees. For tonight's talk, I invite you to a long moment in the woods. We explore the origins of plants and how they evolved from microscopic algae to mosses, ferns, seed plants with or without flowers. I also discuss the life cycle of trees, what they are made of, and many aspects that often go unnoticed such as their ability to exchange signals, connect by their roots, develop mutualistic relationships or adapt to different environments. We review extraordinary trees too: Hyperion, the tallest tree in the world, Methuselah, the oldest independant tree (both in California); the Arbol de Tule, the stouter known tree (Mexico), and extremely old clonal colonies like Old Tjikko in Sweden and Pando in Utah.

Along the videos, I also tell you about different species of plants: birch, maple, pine, coastal redwood, baobab, palm trees...

You can now listen to my stories on music streaming sites. I am on several of them, so search for me on your favourite one!
