General Notes: |
See notes for Registration nos. 216 to 231. 'The largest of six trees. The six trees are of scientific value and are examples of height, girth etc. after 120 years (approx.) in Wellington Provenance'. Watson 1990. 'One of the Wellington Botanic Garden's early roles was to experiment with various imported species to determine their suitability in New Zealand for forestry. Among these trees were some of the earliest Pinus radiata importations, which were part of that experimentation. Due to the fact that their sources were recorded, these introduced species have a genetic significance that has increased as the species have become less common in their native habitat'. Ferkins 1993.
