The long lines of trees I saw in the Denmark countryside this past summer reminded me of the cypress trees in my Texas neighborhood. Several were lost in recent years to disease and other stress factors. There are ways to treat these problems, but the reality is that the Texas climate is not ideal for this species. Careful choices must be made in landscape planting. The orange trees at the top of this art quilt are shaped like the cypress in my neighborhood. The gaps in the line suggest some trees have been lost, reminding me of those that have been removed from streets and yards near my home.
