alley trees Explanation: I'm pretty sure they mean 'allétræer', i.e. trees which line an alley or boulevard. It's not a specific type of tree. Reference: http://www.hedeselskabetsplanteskole.dk/All%E9tr%E6er.1573.a... |

1 hr confidence:
tree-lined avenues Explanation: I think that tree-lined avenues ("hedges and tree-lined avenues") is a more natural way of expressing this in English. "Avenue trees" is also used, but is not as common as far as I know (the majority of googles for this seemed to originate from India). |
