Sorbus torminalis

[RobArb]

Does anybody at all know of a location of Sorbus torminalis within the north west?

 

A park, garden, edge of woodland? I know there isn't that many but I need a photo and a few leaves off one!

 

So does anybody know where one is?

a location of Sorbus torminalis ?

 

Rob,

As S. torminalis is not an endemic species in The Netherlands, we only have a few smaller trees planted in parks. But we do have lots of Sorbus terminalis .

I think there's one in a customers garden. If you can wait a few weeks? Don't know if the leaves will be any good by then?
