And I'm here to convince you that we should be establishing more trees in hedgerows (🧵of course..)

First off - why?

Most London street trees lead a sad life - branches clipped by buses, iron tree guards used as handy rubbish bins, and of course peed on by passing dogs and drunks. So here’s a magnificent example for #NationalTreeWeek - the enormous plane tree outside the Dorchester hotel 🙂

A legend tells of a bird with a broken wing who begged each #tree for shelter from the frost and snow. The birch, oak and willow refused; only the fir trees offered their help. For this kindness the Frost King ordered the North Wind never to take their leaves. #NationalTreeWeek

Trees are not just Trees 🌳
Forests are not just Forests 🌳🦔🌳🐿️🌳

A single Oak Tree can be home to 300 different types of animal & literally 1000s of individuals.

A Forest is a community of life. 🐹🕷️🦎🐦‍⬛🌍

Grazing is a wildlife dead zone ☠️

The holly “bears its crown” in December. Its snow-white flowers that transform into the bright red berries we associate with #Christmas make it one of the birth flowers of this month. In folklore holly is associated with immortality, life & rebirth. #NationalTreeWeek #December1st

O, I am green in Winter-time,
When other trees are brown;
Of all the trees (So saith the rhyme)
The holly bears the crown!

Why are trees so important for rivers?

Did you know that trees can communicate with each other? They share their needs and exchange nutrients through an underground network of fungi called mycelium.

Did you know that over half of the woodland in the Chilterns AONB is classified as ancient woodland?

This means it's been there since at least the 1600s - when maps started to be accurately recorded!
