“The chronicles do not tell how they planted the last one, sire,” the loremaster said, while the orchardmen could not agree what to do.
“Look here,” Samwise spoke up. “White Tree or not, it’s still like any tree.”
“What do you mean?” Aragorn asked. Unfortunately, his time in the woods had not involved taking care of them.
“Get some soil from up on the mountain. Same as the tree was growin' in. It liked that soil or it wouldn’t have got so tall.
“As my Gaffer says, people and trees need to feel at home before they’ll put down roots.”
