His Majesty The King and The Prince of Wales have planted an acer tree in the gardens of Sandringham House to mark the end of The Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC) initiative.

As Prince of Wales, His Majesty The King became Patron of the QGC in May 2021.
In a message to the nation, His Majesty thanked people from across the United Kingdom who came together to create an inspiring living legacy of over three million trees planted in Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s name, to benefit future generations.

The King said: "It is hard to believe that two years have passed since my mother and I planted a tree in Windsor Great Park to mark the commencement of The Queen’s Green Canopy. As the second planting season draws to a close, and with it this vitally important initiative, I
particularly wanted to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone from across the United Kingdom who has helped to plant over three million trees to create an enduring legacy in Queen Elizabeth’s name.

This project has shown how simple, practical and positive gestures can make a big difference, and I can think of no more fitting tribute to Her late Majesty’s seventy-year reign."

The film is narrated by QGC Ambassador Dame Judi Dench.
