Planting a tree is also a "fast food" style.

From urban to rural areas, it is not difficult for you and me to see newly planted trees that, in just a short time, look tall and lush as if they have grown there for decades.

A few years ago, my neighbor decided to spend more than 10 million VND to plant a tree with a diameter of nearly 40cm. After planting one tree, he was so impressed that he immediately bought a second one. The two trees on either side of the gate were beautiful and majestic. A short time later, he felt even more elated when guests came to his house and all praised the majestic and nostalgic tree. The house worth nearly 4 billion VND, in the eyes of the couple, was truly beautiful and perfect, with harmony inside and out, luxurious interior, and cool space.

It is not difficult to see the image of my neighbor next to your house. The popularity of planting such a tree is so familiar and accepted by people as when hungry, you go to buy fast food at stalls, counters, without having to process it because it takes time. The convenience of the "fashion" of planting "fast food" trees has conquered the whole process of building street tree planting projects. Planting for a new house, the tree needs to grow big and beautiful right away. The same is true for street tree projects, the tree needs to be "old" and majestic right away to quickly show the shape of a green street, with cool shade.

It is not difficult to see such greening projects in urban centers. The “fast food” style of planting trees is really useful, conquering people’s eyes from the moment they are planted in the hole.

Then, the cruelty of the challenge suddenly came. Storm No. 5, No. 10 caused many “fast-growing” trees to fall like straw, from private trees to street trees. Many trees were uprooted and protruded from the ground like upside-down onions.

Many tree stumps were bare, smooth, and there was no trace of roots penetrating the bark. The planting hole was therefore also round, full of water, and looked very regular! It was not difficult to see the roots of many trees that had not yet penetrated deep into the ground. That was right! The trees were that old, that tall, and had just been planted after a short time, and were not yet used to the soil, so where would they have time to develop roots?

My neighbor’s wall collapsed, his gate was broken in half. When the storm passed, I looked at his house with sadness. The two trees that were once a source of pride were now a disaster, feeling like they were trash. The street where I go to work every day, trees fell all over, leaving only their roots. A series of very large, newly planted trees, when they fell, pulled down the iron poles that supported them on all sides.

Among those trees, some have recently been swaying due to the influence of the first cold wind of the season. Observing, some trees have not yet been replanted, but were temporarily planted when the wind came. The trees are big, the roots are not yet stable, the wind is easy to understand why they are swayed by the wind.

If you transplant a tree, it will still be green, but obviously it will not have strong roots. If a tree is planted from a young age, cared for and tested by sun, rain, and temperature, it will firmly cling to the ground. The growth of the tree at the place where it is rooted is “real growth”, not the growth lacking substance, relying on others, like a transplanted tree.

The story of the tree is like the story of life! Don’t be impatient to expect immediate results. Results are a process. The story of raising children, the story of academic scores, the story of human resources… here and there still appear to be the appearance of “fast food” methods.
