Kew Gardens to fell rare trees to save greenhouse

Kew Gardens is preparing to renovate its Victorian-era Palm House, which involves felling some of its rare and mature trees due to structural deterioration. The project aims to restore the greenhouse's condition and enhance conservation efforts by propagating plants from seed and cuttings, including critically endangered species. Although some large trees, such as the Ravenea Moorei, cannot be moved and will be cut down, successful propagation and wild reintroduction efforts are underway, highlighting Kew’s role in plant conservation. The renovation is scheduled to begin in 2027 and may take about 50 years to complete.
