Who bought the monkey puzzle tree (araucaria araucana) to Britian, and under what circumstances?

Name the broadleaf native tree that can grow at the highest altitudes in Britian?

Where is Britian's tallest tree? What height and what species is it?

Why are deer so particually attracted to the willow tree (salix), to the extent that they are planted as "sacrifices' on the edge of commercial woodlands to protect other species?

I relly do not know anything in this region so if there are any tree people out there your help would be appreciated

The seed for the monkey puzzle tree were collected by Archibald Menzies ,a botanist in 1796, when he took five nuts from a bowl during the the dessert course at a dinner given by the viceroy of Chile. .The nuts are edible . He smuggled them back to Kew gardens, where a monkey puzzle tree originating from his purloined nuts grew until 1892.

The tallest tree is a Douglas Fir in Scotland and is 210 feet tall. See: http://rampantscotland.com/know/bldev_knowtree s.htm

I would think that the deer are attracted to the willow because it also provides shelter and is usually close to water. I don't know about the 'sacrafice' plantings.

According to http://www.edinburghgeolsoc.org/z_43_02.html
Oak and Birch grow on Ben Nevis which would qualify as a high altitude.
