Alison Fairman, chairman of Boston in Bloom said: "The day went very well, people were queuing up for seeds when the celebration opened! There should be many monkey puzzle trees appearing in the next few years all over Boston.”
The event was organised by The Parish of Boston in partnership with Boston Borough Council.
