Nature finds a way
In this official Press Association video of The Patrick Matthew Violin being played in Scotland by Thoren Fergusson you can see a crab apple tree sapling sprouting from the fallen tree. Part of that old fallen tree was used to make the violin.
For centuries orchardists have grafted artificially selected new apple varieties onto crab apple root stock. Why? Because crab apple trees have been naturally selected by nature in the wild as most circumstance suited to survive. No wonder the orchardist and pomologist Patrick Matthew (1831) discovered the theory apex science fraudster Darwin (not an orchardist - just a liar and plagiarist) stole and called his own.
