Conifers

Conifers

Conifers. These trees form a backdrop to the old part of Cambridge University Botanic Garden, which was laid out around the time of the establishment of the garden on its present site in 1846.

In the foreground, on the snow-covered lawn, there are saplings of Quercus species (Oaks), perhaps to be mature in another 150 years.
