Hi
Sorry, same question for this sapling..
Do you think this was planted deliberately, or sown by seed dispersal or grown from a sucker?
What environment was it in?
Thanks
Kate

In endangered grassy box woodland. In an area of high value for wildflowers. Planted by birds. Friends of Mt Majura have been finding these only in recent years, since the street trees matured. When The Fair was under development FoMM requested that this species should not be planted but was ignored.
