[Brighton] English tree of the year.

[jevs]

Good morning.

The woodland trust are doing a "tree of the year" competition and one of the huge English Elms in the north west corner of Preston Park is nominated.

Would love a local park to get another award so if you can vote, it would be much appreciated.

Of course. Am I right in thinking they are the oldest elms in England?

Imagine not winning bark to bark trophies?

Eastern Preston Twin, Brighton vs The Bruce Castle Oak, Tottenham

It's one of our own,
It's one of our own,
Eastern Preston Twin,
It's one of our own.

I might go into town later and cause some trouble.

Love Elms, done!

I'm sorry, but this is the tree of the year. I have voted for it, it's stunning.

I love a good elm, I have the Chinese variety in Bonsai form. Its magnificent!
