Collingwood Ingram (1881-1981) was passionate about cherry trees. During a second study trip to Japan, he was shocked to realise that Japan was rapidly losing diversity in its types of cherry trees, and that many were already extinct. He devoted the rest of his very long life to restoring this diversity in Japan and to increasing it in England.
