You mentioned once that you were formerly the keeper of young Sitka spruce
seedlings. Here is a Sitka, about 9 years old now, which I planted in its present location about 6 years ago. When I look at this sapling’s inter-node height increment for the last couple of years I am reminded of that satisfying graph you posted on 7 August, under the heading ‘Here’s a pretty picture in Canada today’, in which gold priced in Can. $ is creeping ever upward like the leader of this young Sitka spruce. Have a good day. Equiz.
