On Thursday 9th February, the Trees Committee of Friends of Lewes completed their tree planting for the season, planting nine trees around Nevill Recreation Ground and one in Glebe Close.
The nine new Nevill trees are 3 x Pyrus calleryana Chanticleer, (ornamental Pear), 3 x Acer campestre Lienco, (Field Maple), and 3 x Sorbus intermedia Brouwers, (Whitebeam). Between them, they should give a lovely mix of blossom, berries and Autumn colour.
In Glebe Close, there is a large space where we were able to plant a magnificent Liriodendron tulipifera, (Tulip tree).
