Planting Native Black Poplars
Support our native black poplars
Our Kington Branch Chairman, Tony Norman, is also a member of the North West Herefordshire Tree Wardens group. For a number of years they have been running a project, recording and expanding the population of Native Black Poplars (NBP) - the rarest timber tree in the UK.
Tony has available rooted NBP cuttings in pots (male and female) and also NBP truncheons (large cuttings)
Each plant comes with a free (reused) 1.2 metre Tubex tree guard (but no stake).
A small donation £2/£3 for each tree is encouraged to go towards the project.
If you are interested please contact Tony directly:Â tony@theleen.co.uk
