Pine – Pinus Sylvestris
FIRST TRADABLE
My first tradable item on the road to owning a log home is a … (drums) … PINE (title gave it out, I know). Actually it is a cube made of pine and it contains preplanted pine seeds.
Here’s the product description: “Box contains soil and pine seeds. Remove wrapper, place box in light, water and keep moist. Seedling takes 1-2 weeks. Plant the whole box in the ground when the seedling is 10-15 cm. Or replant the seedling to another container. Pine has a 90 % germination rate.” Producer calls it Kota.
So you could experience the joy of growing a real tree. As you can see, you are presented with two choices. plant the seedling on ground or on container – you will have either a big tree or a small bonsai. Furthermore, if you are unwilling to take such a long project as growing a tree, you can alternatively just enjoy watching the seedling to sprout up from the cube. This really is a present that suits for everybody.
