A total of 122 historic trees of New Zealand are listed in an article by H. H. Allan in the “Journal of the Royal New Zealand Institute of Horticulture.” The article, after referring to the wish of the institute that such trees should be preserved, states: “The list is published as a preliminary contribution. It is not suggested that the list is anywhere near complete, or that all the trees are of equal importance. Some of them are already well guarded. It is hoped, however, that interest will be still further aroused, and that further information will be forwarded to the institute. It will then be possible to provide a reasoned statement for the consideration of the Government departments concerned, with a view to effecting concerted action.”
