Mother Tree
Masayuki
Today in 1945, the Japanese arborist, Masayuki, propagated a new generation of flame trees from the mother tree.
The mother tree had survived the atomic bomb on Nagasaki.
One of the trees is now located at the Glasgow botanic garden. It is planted at the entrance of the herb garden.
