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


You could buy yourself a book about trees? remember books?




I have the Collins guide, but I don't take it (or my camera)
everywhere
I go.

You could take leaves home and look them up.


Yes, then there might be a 50% chance of identifying the tree! :-)


100%. from books.


with the right book.

I always have the right book.




You would have.

Christina didn't have the right book for moles.

Could be she does, but they just don't want to read it.

or because she missed the mole when she threw them.

That's where she has been going wrong.
She used plain text instead of Semtex
