The intervention, managed by the Department of Trees, Parks and Gardens, is part of a comprehensive conservation plan for the historic green spaces of the Andalusian capital. To date, nine of the twelve planned Phoenix dactylifera specimens have been installed, with the remainder of the work to be completed next week.
This work is part of the 2025/2026 campaign, in which the municipal service has planted more than 1,180 trees and 3,550 shrubs in iconic locations such as Maria Luisa Park, Murillo Gardens, and Amate Park. In total, the municipal balance estimates the addition of more than 5,000 new specimens throughout the city.
“"The City Council's goal is to conserve the trees whenever possible, but also to act responsibly when technical reports warn of a risk to people's safety."
In parallel, municipal technicians have proceeded with the removal of two palm trees that showed structural defects and signs of fatigue due to aging. According to the reports, the inclination and loss of stability of these specimens, located in a pedestrian area next to the Hospital de la Caridad, made their replacement necessary to ensure public safety.
