FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New trees for old in parks throughout the borough
Spring 2008
SAPLINGS being
planted this year in Cannizaro and other parks in Merton are replacing many older
trees lost to disease or drought.
They include birch, acer, magnolia, prunus,
zelkova, tilia and callistemon among others.
Unfortunately many were blown over during recent gales (above right) even before reaching their new homes.
