Hi Dan,<br>
<br>
I've had enough trouble with cherry trees on the north side of<br>
Cambridge: you really need flowers, leaves & fruit to be able to do them<br>
properly! Some are flowering cherries (loosely /Prunus serratula/,<br>
others are passable eaters or jam makers, so presumably cultivars of<br>
/Prunus avium/); and plenty are on a /Prunus avium/ rootstock even if<br>
other kinds of cherry.<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
but when its a project and their talking about varieties, there will be a contact person, how knows specie, variety, sort<br>
<br>
natural:tree<br>
type=broad_leafed<br>
species=Prunus avium<br>
species:en=Cherry<br>
height=8.5<br>
<br>
<br>
and I think very importend is, to fix or remember or register the kind or *sort of fruit*, because there are so many and often they become forgotten by time.<br>
<br>
<br>
simular for beer with brewery=<br>
<br>
may be use a tag like<br>
brand=<br>
for the predominant aspect.<br>
<br>
and<br>
brand:rootstock=<br>
<br>
<br>
may be, we should add it to the tree-wiki-tag?<br>
(upcomming, in times of genetic 'illusions' or 'hightspreads' ;) )<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I heard of something that will be fun for someone who likes mapping<br>
trees!<br>
<br>
There's a project in Cambridge that is planting many apple trees, one<br>
of each variety, in a pattern centred around the south of Cambridge.<br>
It's said to be an art project called "Cambridge Community<br>
Collection":<br>
<a href="http://www.cambridgecommunitycollection.co.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.<u></u>cambridgecommunitycollection.<u></u>co.uk/</a><br>
<br>
So, some lucky people near Cambridge have an opportunity to deploy<br>
their advanced tree tagging skills :)<br>
<br>
Best<br>
Dan<br>
