This week the cherry blossoms are getting all the media attention but in my neighborhood the #streettrees, some sort of #peartree, are in full bloom.

We are partnering with #CityParksFoundation and connecting youth with their #urbanforest. Students are helping us #steward their neighborhood #streettrees while learning about #greencareers and how to lead environmental action in their community!
The first wild plum to flower in SE London is this one - Cherry or Myrobalan Plum (Prunus cerasifera) - native of the Balkan Peninsula but now widely naturalised in Britain. #blossom #pavementplants #urbanplants #WildPavements #streettrees
A view of a heavily tree-lined street where mature trees with thick, twisted branches form a dense green canopy over the road. A motorcyclist rides down the center of the dark asphalt street, which is lined with colorful traditional buildings, parked cars, and storefronts. The sun filters through the leaves, creating a soft, warm glow at the end of the urban tunnel.

Very happy as we’ve finally got a tree in my street in #Worthing! (Sponsored with a neighbour)
Hopefully one day there will be more.

We continue to train over 300 #CitizenPruners per year! With their help, we #pruned 500 #streettrees in 2025 and partnered with several community-based organizations to train volunteers. Check out your 2025 Year in Review for more info on the programs you help support! tinyurl.com/2s4rmnxn
Lush red blossoms with a single bee loving the nectar.
A substantial tree covered in blossom. Red against a clear blue sky
Red flowers are pretty and so are the still closed creamy coloured buds and unfurling blooms.
Beautiful gum blossom keeping the bees happy. I hope they can find plenty of water. 🌱 #GumBlossom #flowers #streetTrees
#Mulchfest has begun! You can take your Christmas #tree to be chipped and turned into #mulch for our city’s #greenspaces. Want Christmas tree mulch for your local #streettrees? You can also get that at a chipping site this weekend on Mulchfest. For more info and locations: tinyurl.com/2s4xw7r5
Great bald cypress specimen as a street tree. Wasn’t too happy with the color so I started messing around with it as a black and white. I was really happy with the results. let me know what you think. #baldcypress #trees #streettrees #taxodiumdistichum #arboriculture

Trees of Melbourne
The poles stand in lines, the trees grow in stories. Together, they create Melbourne’s unfinished poem.

Trees of Melbourne
Power runs through cables without pause, while the trees breathe slowly. Two different tempos shaping the same skyline.

A #scarletoak, #Quercuscoccinea, showing how it got its common name in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn. Great to see these as #streettrees - thank you @nycgovparks.bsky.social!
Trees of Melbourne
The seasons soften the leaves, but the cables stay the same. This contrast is the architecture of the everyday.

Trees are being planted in the pavement OUTSIDE Millhouses Park... Daft, or not?!

The theme for this year's National Tree Week was 'a future filled with trees', so we got in touch with our partners and friends and asked them what that means to them.💚

Life Shades
The light keeps changing its mind, and the shade keeps following.
Life Shades is a slow conversation between obedience and desire.

Trees of Melbourne
Each shadow these trees cast is an act of generosity.
They soften the city’s hardness, one leaf at a time.

A couple of stems of bright pink crabapples grow on short spur stems off tree branches. The branches are covered with bright green moss and dusty blue green lichen patches. The pink of the crabapples contrasts sharply with the moss and lichen, making for seasonally festive natural decorations.
Bright pink crabapples. This tree was so odd: the crabapples were growing on short spurs all over the branches, so that it looked like a bright pink knobby mossy hedgehog tree.

Trees of Melbourne
Light breaks differently through each canopy, as if remembering another world.
The Trees of Melbourne carry memories older than the skyline.

Whitebeam street tree with autumn leaves
I love this Whitebeam tree in a street near me, regrowing from a stump.

Enjoy the #urbanforest this weekend! #Ginkgotrees (#Ginkgobiloba) are a historic native of NY State although their modern native range stretches across Asia. Found as #streettrees in NYC, they feature a unique #whorledleafing arrangement, and in November, their #leaves are likely already yellow!
Every scar tells the story of a struggle no one saw.
The Trees of Melbourne are not survivors; they’re poets of endurance.

Looking up at eucalyptus trees, Some trunks are in the foreground, with branches and leaves above, some have just upper branches seen behind. The trees are in dappled sunlight, and blue sky seen between branches.

Looking up at a large eucalyptus tree. Some of the trunk is in the sun, most in the shade. The top of the tree branches and leaves are in the mid afternoon sun. A branch of another tree is seen in the top right of the frame. Blue sky can be seen between the branches and leaves.

Salix of some sort? I think I found the parent tree using Google Maps street view. I will have to go take shots of that some time soon.

A BIG thank you to our volunteers and Local Nature Lab for joining us on #NYCclimateweek to help us care for 15 young #streettrees in the West Village. They are ready for #CityofForestDay2025 and will continue to care for more #trees this Saturday!
