In contrast, solitary trees, like street kids, have a tough time of it and in most cases die much earlier than those in a group.ĭrawing on groundbreaking new discoveries, Wohlleben presents the science behind the secret and previously unknown life of trees and their communication abilities, he describes how these discoveries have informed his own practices in the forest around him. As a result of such interactions, trees in a family or community are protected and can live to be very old. Much like human families, tree parents live together with their children, communicate with them and support them as they grow, sharing nutrients with those who are sick or struggling and creating an ecosystem that mitigates the impact of extremes of heat and cold for the whole group. The Hidden Life of Trees – Peter Wohlleben | In ‘The Hidden Life of Trees’, Peter Wohlleben shares his deep love of woods and forests and explains the amazing processes of life, death and regeneration he has observed in the woodland and the amazing scientific mechanisms behind these wonders, of which we are blissfully unaware.
