Spring Tree Walk

Friends of Alexandra Park Spring Tree Walk

Saturday May 7th 2pm

Trees in Groups

...
This walk will focus on the various groups of trees on the South Slope. Why were trees planted in groups in the first place, and what impressions were the particular species chosen intended to convey? How have they been managed over the years, and how far has nature subverted the original scheme? And what might be done in future to restore or improve the present groves? This walk will encourage the participants to think about the design and management of trees in parks, and particularly those on Alexandra Palace’s fine south facing slopes.
