The city of Melbourne, Australia, wants to
take care of its trees—so much so that in 2013, they assigned each one an email
address so that the public could report any problems—like dangerous
branches—that they noticed.
However,
instead of sending messages about issues, people began writing love letters to
the trees. "My dearest Ulmus," one note began, according to The Atlantic.
"As I was leaving St. Mary's College today I was struck, not by a branch,
but by your radiant beauty. You must get these messages all the time. You're
such an attractive tree."
