what kind of trees are in hyde park london
Hyde Park, London During the late 20th century, over 9,000 elm trees in Hyde Park were killed by Dutch elm disease. This included many trees along the great avenues planted by Queen Caroline, which were ultimately replaced by limes and maples.[40][44] The park now holds 4 acres (1.6Â ha) of greenhouses which hold the bedding plants for the Royal Parks. A scheme is available to adopt trees in the park, which helps fund their upkeep and maintenance.[40] A botanical curiosity is the weeping beech, which is known as "the upside-down tree".[45] A rose garden, designed by Colvin & Moggridge Landscape Architects, was added in 1994.[46]
Bletchley Park In February 1992, the Milton Keynes Borough Council declared most of the Park a conservation area, and the Bletchley Park Trust was formed to maintain the site as a museum. The site opened to visitors in 1993, and was formally inaugurated by HRH The Duke of Kent as Chief Patron in July 1994. In 1999 the land owners, the Property Advisors to the Civil Estate and BT, granted a lease the Trust giving the Trust control over most of the site.[106]
