Cuttings were salvaged from world-famous tree by Hadrian’s Wall after it was cut down last year
Seedlings from felled Sycamore Gap tree have sprouted, says National TrustSat 9 Mar 2024 11.30 CETSeedlings have sprouted from the rescued seeds and cuttings of the world-famous Sycamore Gap tree which was unlawfully felled last year.
The National Trust sprung into action the day of the felling, Jaspar said, working with the national park to collect seeds and cuttings from the site. Though autumn is not the season for seed collection, the teams were able to gather enough material to send to the secret location of the National Trust’s conservation centre in the south-west of England.
The first seedling emerged at the start of the year, Jaspar said. Should the remaining stump not regrow, the National Trust has the option to replant the tree in its original location, but it is unclear what will happen to the remaining seedlings once they are strong enough to leave the centre.
