First leaf. This close-­up view of a pecan seedling, planted and labeled by the biologist and Arnold Professor of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology William Friedman, director of the Arnold Arboretum at Harvard University, shows the plant’s unusually long root.

Beyond imagining. This pecan seedling was planted by William Friedman as an accompaniment to the writing of this chapter during the spring of 2020. He said about the process: “For me, there is something almost beyond imagining when watching a plant germinate and thinking of its potential. To think, these little one-­inch seedlings will eventually tower a hundred feet in the air and live for centuries!” Photograph by William Friedman. Photograph and quotation used by permission.
