Trees

Trees were the tallest of the olvar of Yavanna, plentiful throughout Middle-earth and formed forests. Although the trees were olver, some trees were animate, like the Huorns. There was also the race known as Ents, herders of the trees.

Trees, being living things, were never regarded as gender-neutral in the High-elven tongue.

Trees were of special importance to Tolkien - in his short story "Leaf by Niggle", which in a sense was an elaborate allegory explaining his own creative process, the protagonist, Niggle, spends his life painting a single Tree.
