- Planting any tree is good, provided it is not ailanthus altissima (Tree of Heaven)or another invasive species, but weedy ornamental trees are not very attractive & useful to wildlife. In Islington the council have planted a lot of these such trees lately eg Gingko. Vandals & drunks have destroyed many of these before they have become established. last year the council replanted one spot in York Way (near King’s Cross) three times after the trees were broken. People are pathetic. Dominic Stiles, London

We need more greenery in our towns. John Nelhams, London,UK Read the rest of this entry »
