Yes, the species is obvious, I'm just surprised they haven't named it considering how much they fuss with it.

Did you know the Norse name for that species is Reynir?

Minna's choice of name probably wasn't coincidental.  Isn't the rowan considered either a magical tree or a strong protection against magic?  (Depending on which tradition you're referring to.)

If they had been smart though they would be planting birch. It's more resilient in cold climates.

First thing I thought was "Attack on Titan". Cue strange mental images.

Not going to say anything about that crossover aside of it being terrifying. Heh, zodiacs are fun, let's see... this one says I'm alder. The first word that popped up from the text to me was "infectious" - oooo-kay.

"There's a zodiac for that."

I'm supposed to be patient and knowledgeable, according to that. Well, I can't fault its optimism!

isn't that the price of any food in norway

It is, I can confirm.
For the price of the tiniest sandwich you can get a full meal in Hungary...

still, I'm a bit tired of other tourist’s reaction when I tell where I’m from; almost every day someone asks “But isn’t that a poor country?” Meh...

Living on a budget or not, I highly enjoy Norway!
Can I take a fjord back with me, please? Just a small one?

I appear to be an oak as well. I can't argue with the description, really, except that large family bit.
