Nature is replete with a wide variety of flora and fauna. Nature provides everything to mankind, the master of the universe. If natural laws are obeyed, there is nothing that nature does not provide for. So what is the miraculous magic of trees.
The earth plays host to a wide variety of trees that provide food, in the form of grains, cereals, fruits, vegetables and nuts meant to be a comprehensive provider of every nutrient that is required for the functioning of the human body incorporating its entire host of organs. Seeds ensure propagation of the species.
The superb multi-coloured hues of the inflorescence of flowers is a stunning treasure trove of the most colourful beauty of corollas as petals of various sizes and shapes that decorate the earth, with every colour of the rainbow and hybrid hues in all its permutations and combinations. Also the root of trees assimilates all the essential minerals needed for the development of the trunk, the branches, the leaves, the multi-coloured petals of flowers and its fruits in all forms with not a single nutritional content not being provided for.
One of the most magical uses of the trees is the process of photosynthesis that takes place in the presence of sunlight with chlorophyll, the green pigmentation as the catalyst that rejuvenates the air by taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, leaves acting as the lungs of the atmosphere, a carbon sink for man-made carbon dioxide.
Also in the herbs and shrubs that grow on earth every medicinal need for curing any disease is provided for. Also every part of the tree is recyclable and does not require fertilizers, since the various parts of the trees in themselves are providers of natural fertilizers.
