It all started with a birch seedling that had rooted in a planter on our balcony four stories up. This must've been around 1996. After we moved to our current home in Nisse, I planted this seedling along with a birch sapling given to me by a neighbour. They've grown up together, if one had a growth spurt, the other was not far behind. The space between these two trees has always been special to me and I often look at them from my bedroom window.
