As well as a spring blossom display, the prunus wild cherry trees also put on an autumn leaf display, although not so spectacular.

Incidentally, if you want a new tree planted on the berm outside your place to replace a dead one, it is likely to be a case of, “You can do that, but you need to pay for it.” We’ve been told that a volunteer group who offered to make such a planting if the council bought the trees were told that by the council.  It’s clearly alright for the council to give Dougherty a totally undeserved multi-thousand dollar pay rise, but not spend the same on town beautification.
