Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum ‘ornatum’
Masarnen Siapaneaidd 
(2198)
https://what3words.com/jeeps.divisions.libraries

The Latin name for this tree, Acer palmatum, comes from the word ‘palm’, referring to the hand-like shape of the leaves. 

These trees have been cultivated in Japan for centuries and it is now thought that there are over 2000 varieties. 

In Japanese culture, Japanese maple trees are said to signify great blessings and any place in which they are planted is recognised as a peaceful retreat.

Foxglove Tree
Paulownia tomentosa
Coeden Bysedd y Cŵn
(2196)
https://what3words.com/many.vase.woods

The foxgloves tree grows fragrant foxglove shaped lilac flowers before the giant leaves appear in the summer.

It is the custom in China to plant the tree on the birth of a girl, as the child matures so does the tree, on marriage the tree is cut down and carved into wooden articles for her dowry.
