For a number of years, the Friends have been planting trees which are specimens of many varieties. Under the expert eye of local tree specialist David Cornick, trees have been chosen to give colour, replace historical varieties and introduce new types to the Park. The marker post project sets out to list the different trees of the Park and to give you some information about them from the oldest tree which could well have been here when Paxton designed the Park right up to modern day additions.
We hope you find enjoyment in the trees of Princes Park.
The Friends of Princes Park are very grateful to our members who have created the above tree cards and to Harper Collins for their permission to reprint material from their excellent book - Collins Tree Guide. Please note that the tree card content is covered by licence and is not, therefore, available to copy, reprint or otherwise transmit. The licence is non-transferable. The Collins Tree Guide is available from Amazon or locally from News from Nowhere.
As you will see from the tree map, we have colour coded the trees and numbered them in groups. You will find the colours refer to an area within the Park making it easier for you to navigate the tree cards on this site.
The Map key gives a list of the names (both common and scientific) of all the trees with marker posts and tree cards.
