More Trees

...at Heltorf Garden, nearby Düsseldorf. Some of its views are quite exotic to the eye of a man from the Lower Rhine region, like this group of tall trees.

@HorseRotorVator: I like this park very much. It's private property and belongs to a destitute aristocrat residing nearby my city.

@Craiger: Thanks, Craiger! Though I assume that you're used to bigger amounts of trees than I am! ;-)

I love the composition of the tall trees with the two smaller trees centered below. Particularly when one of the smaller ones is more colorful with its foliage.

@Steven: In autumn this park is very colourful - compared to the foliage of our regular trees in the streets. Somewhere I have a brochure about these trees, must search for it... Some of the plantings, like the rhododendron, are more than 300 years old, what makes this park a real treasure. I like it very much.
