New trees for middle field

Trees have now been planted along the new path in the middle field leading to the Catford Green development.    The species are Scarlet Oak, Holm Oak, English Oak and Elm as advised by the User Group.  The trees look very good but have limited root systems and will be vulnerable, particularly in the first year.  Under the terms of contract with  Glendale, the suppliers 'Trees for Cities' are looking after the trees for two years. As the weather becomes warmer and drier these trees will need to be watered regularly.  If you find any not receiving the necessary care please contact www.treesforcities.org.
