Thanks to Peggy for sending this photograph taken by her friend "Snaik, of a redwood in Aitken’s Arboretum, Kinnoull Hill Woodland Park. N 56 23.737 W 003 23.098. A quote from Woodland Park website: 'Thanks to a generous bequest by the late Jim Aitken, an arboretum on Deuchny Hill is also to be restored for the benefit of the people of Perth.' This could be one of the first planted, there are at least 14 in that area from the River Tay to the Woodland Park, as if each of the large house owners received one from the nurseryman!" |
