In the kitchen window.
In November, I picked up a few acorns from the backyard that had begun to poke out little white roots. I balanced them over water in the tops of bottles and these two survived.

I love it! It has some kind of ikebana touch!
Cindy, what a great experiment.
What fun; I often find the acorns from my evergreen oaks, I will try this, thank you.
I have managed to keep three oak seedlings alive in the garden but I still don’t know if they will really grow into trees eventually. They are in the shade of maples which is not ideal. Never occurred to me to try to root the acorns. We get so many we have to sweep them up multiple times in the autumn.
I saw it on Pinterest (of course) and Gardenista. We’ll see how long it stays attractive. Right now I’m wondering if the water needs a drop of liquid fertilizer.
That is a lovely thing to have on your windowsill – and what a lovely view you have from there…all those trees!
The trees are wonderful — until fall raking.
I wasn’t sure if they were part of your garden or not
The big tree trunk closest to the window is ours. It’s an oak and probably the “parent” of my little trees. Unfortunately, it holds onto its (brown) leaves all winter and gives us another big raking session in the spring 🙂
there is nothing cuter than a baby oak tree.
Simply beautiful…It’s like a kid looking out at the grown-ups!
How wonderful! Life does assert itself.
It’s so exciting how things will grow!
