Cambridge, England: Botanic Garden: north-west corner: Wing Nut tree

Date photograph taken: 04 June 2000

This Wing Nut tree (Pterocarya fraxinifolia) is one of the biggest trees in Cambridge (more than 30m high and more than 10m wide). There are actually two trees here but one blew down in 1886 and the larger part of what is seen here are the suckers which grew from the root of that tree.

In February 2005 four of the big trunks were removed.
