Great news alert: replanting after Storm Éowyn has officially BEGUN!👏

Simon Milne, Regius Keeper of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, helped plant a Saxegothaea conspicua conifer at Dawyck Botanic Garden.

After 50 trees were lost at the Garden due to the storm, this is a milestone moment 🌲

The lovely Dawyck Botanic Garden and arboretum, on 60 acres or 24 hectare of land that rises above the River Tweed near Stobo, south-west of Peebles in the Scottish Borders. It is the result of over 300 years of tree collecting. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

Dawyck Botanic Garden and arboretum. The image shows a telephoto view along a narrow grassy path with a profusion of flowers, shrubs and trees on either side. There are two people standing on the path with their backs to the camera. In the background, beyond more trees, are a collection of roofs and chimney posts of a grand house. The scene is in sunlight.
