There are no trees like the trees of that land. For in the autumn their leaves fall not, but turn to gold. Not till the spring comes and the new green opens do they fall, and then the boughs are laden with yellow flowers; and the floor of the wood is golden, and golden is the roof, and its pillars are of silver, for the bark of the trees is smooth and grey.&#8217; <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><b>FoTR Book II Chapter VI: Lothl\u00f3rien<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Stopping briefly to tend to Frodo\u2019s injury, Aragorn is amazed to find Bilbo\u2019s coat of mithril, which saved Frodo from his spear wound in Moria. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>When they move on, Legolas and Aragorn are relieved to reach L\u00f3rien ahead of persuing orcs.
