041: only the Acer negundo ssp. mexicana (1982 002). Nice picture, I thought; in the foreground some rushes that still have to be cut, but most of the hill is nice and clean!

006 t/m 010: Populus alba ssp. integerrima (1971 016) (cat says: not a ssp but a var!)
(There is one in B7 as well (with same number! but planted much later: rootsucker from the first one, I believe). Bob says: planted 5 or 6 years ago! 1990 – 2000
This alba is huge. I made pictures in “vertical panorama” (without tripod).

Nice tree, with little apples. Needs some pruning. Hangs over the track.
