Sycamore Gap tree’s first seedling given to the King to be planted at Windsor Great Park

The King has been given the first seedling from the felled Sycamore Gap tree by the National Trust, with plans to plant it in Windsor Great Park to live on for generations to come.

His Majesty, who is patron of the National Trust, was given the first of around 100 seedlings propagated from the 200-year-old tree, which will be cared for by expert horticulturists until they are ready for planting as saplings.
