Video Title:
Sheltering Branches - Smithsonian Gardens, Habitat Exhibition
Description:
Discover the story of the Southern live oak tree: an enduring symbol of safety, strength, and resilience. Live oaks serve as a habitat for many species of plants and animals, but they have also played an important role in our nation’s history. Sheltering Branches explores how live oaks furnished the timber to build America’s first ships and provided African Americans with places to gather, rest, read, and reflect.
