Trees that can grow up to 20m (66ft) are to be planted in eight sites across a Berkshire town.
The trees, which are already 12m (40ft) tall, are due to arrive shortly in Slough and will be planted in January, depending on the weather.
The sites were mostly chosen by local people at an event earlier this year. The trees, which will be guy-roped for support and will have a fence around them, will replace a cedar that had to be felled near the town's Tesco store.

Could you tell me what the phrase "guy-roped" means?
