What was Carnil, who made it and what colour was it?

And by the Wight's new rule, the source of this question is in the Silmarilion.

Tricksy!

This is a UT question, but you may be able to guess or figure out the answer by giving it some thought.

The area around Tharbad was wide open grasslands. But once it had all been thickly forested. Where did the trees go? What happened to the forests?

Yes! They deforested huge tracts of the ancient forests over the thousands of years of their realm.

Ok; The Elves gave at least 9 species of trees to the Numenoreans as gifts; name those that are known.

Due to request from RKittle: answers are found in UT and HISTORY.

Mallorn is 1

Laurinque is not.
UT states that it was a mistaken belief that the tree was brought in seed by the Eldar (and named in honor of Laurelin from its descriptions).

Oiolaire is 2
Lairelosse is 3
Nessamelda is 4
Vardarianna is 5
Taniquelasse is 6
Yavannamire is 7

There are at least 2 other species (one of them can still be found in UT).

At least two others are:

A seedling of Nimloth, and Lavaralda (found in Lost Road; Numenorean chapters).

Ask or assign a question here.
