The red maple trees on Nguyen Chi Thanh Street in Hanoi
Vice chairman of the municipal people's committee, Duong Duc Tuan has just agreed with the proposal from the Department of Construction to replace the red maple trees which have been planted on Nguyen Chi Thanh and Tran Duy Hung streets.
According to a report from the Construction Department, the pilot plantation of over 260 red maple trees which were donated by a local firm were carried out in 2018. 119 trees were planted on Nguyen Chi Thanh Street and 143 others on Tran Duy Hung Street.
"The trees have not grown well over the past two years due to unsuitable climate," the report said. "45 trees have died."
The department has suggested replacing the maple trees with the Ivory Coast almond trees on these two streets, which can be carried out this month.
