About This Quiz
If you are a nature lover, it's a sure bet that you are familiar with so many trees existing out there. Can you name some of them based on pictures alone? This is the exciting challenge for you in this quiz!
There are so many species of trees all around the world. Some trees have even adapted some characteristics to suit the climate of the region where they grow. That is why you can see familiar sturdy trees all around the globe, but each country can lay claim to a specific species of it as their own. Of course, we all want our tree pride!
Not only do we want our tree pride, but we also honor these living "creatures" of nature in a special way. Thus, there are countries that have official trees in their roster. It will also be a fun activity to spot what the national tree of a given country is, don't you think? This quiz will have that international challenge, too.ÂÂ
Some countries even go further and farther than having national trees. Some of their country's official coat of arms have designed trees into them. And that's a really cool way of thanking Mother Nature for the wonderful existence of trees.
Now, are you ready for this tree image quiz? Leaf through it and roll on!
