Every time I stroll round a London park I'm frustrated by not knowing
the names of the trees, particularly those that have obviously been
around for ever. There is one in flower in St.James Park at the moment
which everyone was stopping to admire (and smell). These days one
might expect there to be a plan of such things online. Sure, in this
case it would mostly be plane, but there are some unusual ones too.
Anyone any ideas how one might get this information? TIA

Thanks Bob. Very interesting, and strange that I didn't come across it
when searching the site.
One wonders what London would look like without its plane trees!
