Tu Bishvat: The creation of beautiful things

In the past, trees were sacred to many people, but only Judaism has a New Year for them, which falls on the 15th day of the Hebrew month of Shevat (Tu Bishvat).

 Border policemen plant saplings for Tu Bishvat in the Arazim Valley near Jerusalem. Tu Bishvat falls on February 6 this year.
