I am trying to bind some data from a class instance to a TreeView. My code is as follows:

public partial class MainWindow : Window
{        
    public MainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        Parent myClass = new Parent();
        this.DataContext = myClass;
    }
}

public class Parent
{
    public String Name;
    public List<string> Children = new List<string>();

    private static int count = 0;

    public Parent()
    {
        this.Name = "Test";

        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
        {
            Children.Add(i.ToString());
        }
    }
}

And the XAML:

<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:loc="clr-namespace:WpfApplication1"
    Title="MainWindow" Height="287" Width="525">

    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
        <TreeView Name="TreeView" ItemsSource="{Binding}">
            <TreeView.ItemTemplate>
                <HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding Children}">
                        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"/>
                </HierarchicalDataTemplate>
            </TreeView.ItemTemplate>
        </TreeView>
    </StackPanel>    
</Window>

Nothing shows up in my TreeView. What am I doing wrong?
