(Posted on behalf of Doug Edworthy, tree warden)
Can you find a suitable space for a black poplar?Within the next few weeks there will be 650 black poplar whips available from Kew Wakehurst. Do you know anyone who may be interested in receiving these trees, or of any sites that would benefit?
Individuals and organisations can apply, and there is no limit to the number of trees people can apply for. The whips may need to be collected from Wakehurst, or if there is enough demand in certain areas, it may be that other collection points could be organised.
There’s an application form for the trees is on the Western Sussex Rivers Trust website: https://wsrt.org.uk/about/our-projects/populating-black-poplar .
