Sir Isaac Newton's apple tree is among those included in the project launched by Prince Charles.
As Prince Charles unveiled the collection of woodlands and trees due to be protected across the UK, he asked for the "dwindling" historic natural habitat to be renewed.
The range of locations - from rural to urban - being dedicated to the monarch reflects "the unique diversity of all corners of the United Kingdom", he said.Under an apple tree at Woolsthorpe Manor in Lincolnshire, Isaac Newton wondered why objects always fall downwards "It is remarkable that this ancient tree is as old as Shakespeare's Hamlet and Caravaggio's David and Goliath," he said.He said more than one million trees had already been planted as part of the "treebilee" campaign for the jubilee.
