Plant Yer Roots, Lad

Here's something interesting. American Forests, the nation's oldest non-profit citizens' conservation organization, will sell you offshoots of trees associated with famous people. For example, you could order a live oak from the Edgar Allan Poe Museum's Enchanted Garden, or a bur oak from Simm's Cave, which inspired Mark Twain to write "Tom Sawyer." How about a weeping willow from Walden Woods? Very fascinating stuff.
