Seedlings have sprouted from the rescued seeds and cuttings of the world-famous Sycamore Gap tree which was unlawfully felled last year.
A National Trust conservation team was able to cultivate about 45 seedlings from the seeds and twigs salvaged from the site by Hadrian’s Wall in Northumberland, Andy Jasper, the trust’s director of gardens and parklands, told the BBC Radio 4 Today programme on Saturday.
