FEATURE - Der britische National Trust pflanzt landesweit 49 Setzlinge, die aus dem illegal gefällten Robin-Hood-Baum in Sycamore Gap gezogen wurden
SONDERKONDITIONEN: Satzpreis!
The first of 49 saplings grown from the illegally felled Sycamore Gap tree were planted on Saturday as part of the National Trust’s Trees of Hope initiative.
The plantings coincide with the start of National Tree Week and were conducted after early 500 applications were submitted for the 49 saplings – one for each foot in height of the original tree at the time it was cut down.
Now between four and six feet tall, the plants were grown from seeds collected immediately after the felling and nurtured at the Trust’s Plant Conservation Centre.
Hilary McGrady, Director General of the National Trust, said: “It was the quick thinking of our conservationists in the aftermath of the felling that has allowed the Sycamore Gap tree to live on. The team has cared for these 49 hopeful saplings beautifully and they’re now ready to be given to communities, where they’ll become a source of inspiration, a place to reflect, a home for nature or simply a reminder that there are always good things worth fighting for, even after something so senseless. We’re looking forward to seeing them thrive.”
All the saplings will be planted in publicly accessible spaces across the UK, allowing people to share in the legacy of one of the country’s most recognisable trees.
The first sites to receive a ‘Tree of Hope’ on Saturday, 22 November, include The Tree Sanctuary in Coventry – created by three teenagers to rescue unwanted trees – a memorial site for the Minnie Pit mining disaster in Staffordshire, and Greenham Common in Berkshire, which reopened to the public in 2000 after decades of military use.
Later in the week, further plantings will take place at the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease at Seacroft Hospital in Leeds, at Hexham General Hospital in Northumberland, and at the veterans’ charity Veterans in Crisis in Sunderland.

By Laura Parnaby, PA Real Life
A plant-loving woman has transformed her London home into a miniature urban jungle

Carla Hora, 30, has filled the living room and kitchen of her house in Kennington,
south London, with greenery, leaving her with room for "only a couple of pieces of

And she never uses her television, which is swamped in foliage.
The architectural assistant, who grew up in Romania, started colle cting her plants in
2017 and has been buying more ever since acquiring more than 10 specimens a
week online, from all over the world and in local garden centres, in the early months.
A year ago, she owned 150 houseplants, but since then she has lost co unt.
She said: "I definitely feel like a plant parent - I refer to my plants as 'babies' and I've
developed ways of taking care of them all and keeping watch over them."
Tending to all her charges takes her around two hours a week, but she usually spen ds
another 10 hours admiring and enjoying them.
"My very first plant was a dracaena marginata about six years ago, but I started
properly collecting in 2017, and they've just come one after another ever since," she
said.
"I was getting more than ten plants a week. I couldn't choose a favourite, they all have
such different traits - usually my favourite is the latest one to sprout."

FEATURE - Pflanzenliebende Carla Hora verwandelt ihre Londoner Wohnung in einen Stadtdschungel
Carla has lost count of her plants. PA REAL LIFE *** Plant-loving woman transforms London home into miniature urban jungle filled with
hundreds of her leafy babies
By Laura Parnaby, PA Real Life
A plant-loving woman has transformed her London home into a miniature urban jungle
- and thinks of herself as a "plant parent" to her hundreds of leafy "babies".
Carla Hora, 30, has filled the living room and kitchen of her house in Kennington,
south London, with greenery, leaving her with room for "only a couple of pieces of
furniture".
And she never uses her television, which is swamped in foliage.
The architectural assistant, who grew up in Romania, started colle cting her plants in
2017 and has been buying more ever since acquiring more than 10 specimens a
week online, from all over the world and in local garden centres, in the early months.
A year ago, she owned 150 houseplants, but since then she has lost co unt.
She said: "I definitely feel like a plant parent - I refer to my plants as 'babies' and I've
developed ways of taking care of them all and keeping watch over them."
Tending to all her charges takes her around two hours a week, but she usually spen ds
another 10 hours admiring and enjoying them.
"My very first plant was a dracaena marginata about six years ago, but I started
properly collecting in 2017, and they've just come one after another ever since," she
said.
"I was getting more than ten plants a week. I couldn't choose a favourite, they all have
such different traits - usually my favourite is the latest one to sprout."
