On a country property a man named Holland lives with his daughter Ellen. Over the years, as she grows into a beautiful young woman, he plants hundreds of species of gum trees on his land. When Ellen is nineteen her father announces his decision: she will marry the man who can name each eucalypt, down to the last tree! A modern fairy tale!
