This larch, Larix laricina, Mt Royal Cemetery is probably the biggest Montreal. Is it a remnant of the original forest or has it been planted after 1874 when a fly to almost completely decimated saw this species ?
Larch does not support the shadow that's why he likes the bogs and wetlands. This tree may be down a larch which grew into one of these wetlands in the mountain there are hundreds of years.
It is completely separate on Mt-Royal. No other larch of this dimension! Is there a survivor of the plague that was mentioned above?
Ultimately it is possibly a tree, a living artifact, related to the life of rivers now disappeared from the mountain.
Similarly in For this black ash, another species that grows in wetlands. This specimen reached a very large size that we hardly used to seeing. Would he also descended from a specimen whose lives have been immersed in one of the original marshes of the Mont-Royal?
These are questions that will lead the hiker to watch this environment in a new light. These two remarkable presences Mt Royal Cemetery, tamarack and black ash, may reflect a continuous history that is lost in the mists of time!
