This gets interesting when the Europeans . Came to Canada . The aboriginal people pointed out the special
Relationship between these 2 species . The outside tree is prunus serotina black cherry . The inside tree is Betula alleghaniensis. Yellow Birch . Both trees grow in very similar conditions in nature . But where they intersect they often grow in forest together . When close to each other they often both excelled. The natives pointed this out . These 2 are near Ottawa . Ontario . Location is protected . The much younger birch is growing inside the cherry . It is believed the birch germinated in a crack . The strange part is the birch is not forcing the . Cherry apart . The cherry seems to be expanding to accommodate the birch . Science students have studied . This and have no idea why or what is happening . Also have not nailed down exactly why the 2 species get along so well
