Trees are important components of a natural landscape. They provide landmark recognition, shade, filter dust from the air, prevent soil erosion, and provide shelter for life forms under their foliage. Trees are long-lived, perennial woode plants, some reaching several hundred years, forming an important component of our living biosphere.
In Singapore, trees can be found along highways, in parks, neighbourhoods and gardens. Without them, the city would be a harsh concrete landscape. "Know 10 Trees" is an NParks initiative aimed at raising the public's awareness of Singapore's most common roadside trees, which are colourfully depicted in this set of stamps.
