I have served as a high school biology teacher for 36 years, and I am currently working on a "leaf library" - taking dried, pressed leaves and laminating them onto labeled, glossy photo paper. The library will serve as a reference resource for future use. I live in Bristol TN. I would love to get leaves from western trees - such as the big leaf maple and vine maple, etc. - to add to the collection. Do you know where I might obtain some? I have searched on the internet without much success. Thanks for any info that you can provide. My contact information follows:<br />Larry D. Booher<br />924 Highway 126<br />Bristol, TN 37620<br />e-mail: lbooher@btes.tv (the 1st letter is a small-case L, not the number 1).<br />I hope your day is filled with blessings!<br />- Larry Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2787148012796625894.post-74639794924305805412016-12-22T17:20:22.634+01:002016-12-22T17:20:22.634+01:00Sure, you can use the image.

Sorry again if this isn't the best way to contact you (I wasn't able to find your contact info anywhere else).<br />My name is Adam Runions. I am a Post-Doctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research in Cologne, Germany.<br /><br />I am writing today with regards to a manuscript I am preparing for the scientific journal New Phytologist, in collaboration with Prof. Miltos Tsiantis and Prof. Przemyslaw Prusinkiewicz (University of Calgary, www.algorithmicbotany.org). The paper will be open access, and uses computational models grounded in biological studies of leaf form development to generate a diverse range of natural leaf forms. <br /><br />In preparing our manuscript, we came across your wonderful blog. We were particularly intrigued by the following image of a Acer macrophyllum on this page:<br />http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH7YVmRWh-s/SPV8tpUxOJI/AAAAAAAAB_I/t09U2PDJY78/s1600-h/Acer+macrophyllum+leaf.JPG<br />which corresponds extremely well to one of our simulated leaves.<br /><br />Given this, we were wondering it would be possible to receive your permission to adapt this image in our paper. We would, of course, gratefully acknowledge you and website as the original source in whatever manner you deem most appropriate. <br /><br />Thank you for your time and consideration. <br /><br />Best regards,<br />Adam Runions <br />Figurehead Industries (by RadiomanSun)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09788522119001945346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2787148012796625894.post-69808681310020627862009-12-08T20:49:05.241+01:002009-12-08T20:49:05.241+01:00Hi!

Readers of my blog tried to identify a tree shown in my last post "Where The Green Thumb Lives". I thought it was a Big Leaf Maple. Helen from Toronto found your blog. After comparing the pictures, we can be sure that the huge leaves on my photographs belong to a Big Leaf Maple. Thanks again! Have a happy Holiday Season!Tatyana@MySecretGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15230255354868127650noreply@blogger.com
