Sacred Tree Farms

Check out this article on the wonderful project at FSU. I cared for the Hippocrates sycamore tree and designed the Medicinal Herb Garden at the College of Medicine. 💚

‘Over the centuries, cuttings of that original tree have been rooted and shared with medical schools around the world. FSU’s tree was rooted from an offspring given to UF and planted more than 50 years ago. Tisher personally delivered FSU’s sapling last year, which was lovingly tended by Phoenix Fermin, greenhouse manager for the grounds department, until the garden was built.

“She really is the tree-whisperer,” said Anthony Allbaugh, assistant director of facilities and operations at the College of Medicine, whom Watson credits with seeing the project through to completion. “We had a lot of challenges getting this garden built, but worrying about the tree after it was delivered wasn’t one of them.”

The garden amazes me with the various blooms, expansion of mint (mojitos anyone?), the cilantro bolting and blooming into the cutest white flowers that fruit into coriander seeds. The pretty little lacy umbrels invite pollinators, attracting both butterfly and bee. 🦋 🐝
