The Fairy Tree

In Ireland its quite common to see a lone Hawthorne tree growing in fields, they are known as Fairy trees, a farmer would never cut down a Hawthorne as the fairies would inflict a life of misfortune on him. As a child I first heard of the fairies and their affinity for the Hawthorne when I innocently picked the pretty white flowers and brought them into my Grandmothers house, I was swiftly chased out of the house and told to put them back where I got them or the Fairies would be angry and bring bad luck on the house. Its common to make a wish at a Hawthorne by tying a strip of material around a branch or pushing a coin into the bark as little offerings to the fairies.
