A place to add everything I see on my visits to Kirk lane and Nunroyed park. At the time I believe I have named everything right to the best of my knowledge but there will be an odd few that are wrong. Those marked with a "*" are most likely to be that species but have not been confirmed.
Lawson Cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana)
April
Tall ornamental with feathery foliage. One of the UK’s most popular garden conifers, Lawson cypress has rot-resistant wood which is popular in Japan for coffins and shrines.

Flowers
Minute flowers, which look like buds, open at the twig tips in spring. Male flowers are crimson, becoming yellow with pollen, and females are blue.
