When I was a little kid my mother always stopped by ancient trees to admire them. “Imagine if it could tell us what it has seen”.

I think there’s plot material in your comment.

I remember reading an old sci-fi novel about a specific type of alien ancient sentient tree… The Leaves of October.

It was… Okay. More of a collection of short stories around the central theme. Still interesting, though. Haven’t thought about that book in decades!

This is the plot of an episode of the anime “mushishi” called “tree of eternity”, IIRC.

“A Monster Calls” has a very similar premise. Mother, Child, and physic Tree.

I strongly recommend it.
