Eldorado Posted October 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2018 A beech tree grafted into an N-shape to woo a woman called Nellie almost 100 years ago has been voted England’s tree of the year, the Woodland Trust said. It joins an impressive giant redwood in Northern Ireland, a spruce in which children play in Scotland and an oak that may once have hidden a king in Wales as winners of public votes for each nation in the tree of the year contest. The Woodland Trust, which runs the competition, is now urging members of the public to choose an overall winner to represent the UK in the Europe-wide tree of the year competition.
