A beautiful Japanese Maple tree is the second Treasured Tree designated by the Verona Environmental Commission this year. The tree is located in the front lawn of a wonderful house from 1919 located at 82 Morningside Road. It belongs to Pamela and David Blake who moved to Verona in 1981. The specimen is a large Acer palmatum, a species native to Japan, Korea and China. If you would you like to nominate a tree please write to the VEC at veronaenvironmental@gmail.com.
