Story help; What sort of trees I am writing a story set in
the battle fields (flanders

wondering if any of you know
what sort/type of trees are
there, if any?
(random question but i am
describing setting; yes i know
there are poppies there!)
thank you!!
note to celticchip73; and good
researchers get there
information from different
sources.

For many years after WWI no trees grew there at all ... but the poppies did. Hence the poem! Sorry I don't know more. Perhaps you'll get an answer from a Dutch or Belgian person. |

There is a very moving shot of Flanders Fields in the final scene in the last episode of Blackadder Goes Forth. Perhaps you can identify the trees from this video. |

A good writer does his or her own research. Also good writers write about things they know about. Please take this into consideration. |
