Hello, Nancy.

Try Rebecca's "Faerie Flora and Trees"

http://www.students.uiuc.edu/~rlehmann/flora.html

Perhaps an appreciation of the role of plants in our folklore would be 
an education to all of us, not just ageing hippies like me ;-)

In my opinion faeries, and the 'spirits' of plants and trees are simply 
a folk representation of the innovative ideas formalised scientifically 
in the Gaia Hypothesis.

So, try the "Gaia Forest Archives"

http://gaia1.ies.wisc.edu/research/pngfores

But then some people think that the Gaia hypothesis is just a faerie 
storie, don't they ... ?
