C’est étonnant ces arbres où ils ont de réussi à pousser. Belle observation et image.

Well, he's growing where he's supposed too. Great capture.

I'm always amazed at trees that grow right out of rocks; You try and grow a tree in your yard giving it full attention and it dies - go figure!

what a show of tenacity...perhaps these trees can also absorb water through their leaves to supplement what a small root system must offer..

It does look odd to see trees growing on a rock formation like that!

Both trees looks so precariously perched and that they are growing out of rocks is quite amazing. V

Dramatic shot, have to wonder what their root system looks like
