Despite spending 3000 euros on it’s relocation the Orihuela council has now cut down a monumental palm tree called, “La Esperanza.”
The 17-metre-high specimen was transplanted inside the Palmeral a little over a year ago, at the end of 2019.
It came from a location, on Avenida Doctor García Rogel, next to the San Antón roundabout where the September 2019 DANA it damaged its base after which it began to tilt dangerously.
Despite the fact that last summer the Department of the Environment celebrated the success the move, just a few months later at the end of last year, it was mourning “La Esperanza’s” death.
