Heritage trees - Black alder (Alnus glutinosa) - Młynówka Królewska 

Name and surname: Black alder (Alnus glutinosa)

Family: Heritage trees

Occupation: Retired nature protection specialist 

Place of residence: Młynówka Królewska 

Dimensions: Circumference: 229cm Crown diameter: 9m (I have a medium canopy) 

Special attributes: I bloom with long catkins (like hazelnuts), my seeds are scattered by water

Interests: Observing people and animals; I like to spend time by the water, which means that I like flowing water at my roots 

What I don't like: When someone intrudes upon my personal space.

What I like: Greenery around me and the care that surrounds me with the help of Krakow Municipal Greenspace Authority 

Plans for the future: I'm not going anywhere. I am an old tree and have seen and heard many stories in my  life. It is time for my retirement, during which I will be a babysitter for animals, plants and mushrooms. 

Take care of the place where I stand because I deserve respect. In return, I will remain here for years so that we can look at Krakow together.
