I have a good oak at the bottom of my garden, and there is another over the road. There are odd trees like this scattered all around and every so often a wooded area of a few acres. They say that when the Romans landed here a squirrel could go from East coast to the West without touching the ground, not that I suppose they ever did. One day the humans will be gone, then it won't take long for the forests to return, our oak tree produces literally thousands of acorns in a good year, and I am forever pulling baby oak, ash and hornbeam from my beds. If you go somewhere like primrose Hill in North London and look out across suburbia you can barely see the houses for trees, mostly sycamore and maple, but lots of others as well. We have about 35 trees that are native to the UK, but people have been introducing them since those Romans brought poplar for the bees, and there are about 350 species that have 'escaped' and grow wild now. Conifers are a good example, we started with only yew, juniper and scots pine, have a look at this little gem from the Forestry Commission in 1966

I use to live there and didn’t miss trees around but that much but that was over 30 years ago.

Now my mind says there should be trees mainly Oaks.
