OUR LATE CHIEF‘S TANIST FLORIAN MACLAREN
Florian's education began at Balquhidder Primary School where each day started with a short walk past the old kirk with brother Louis to study and play at the foot of Boar’s Rock.
Then he went on to boarding school as his parents were posted abroad; he studied Classics at St Andrews University where he met his future wife Romilly before leaving to work and study trees at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Edinburgh.
Florian has worked in arboriculture ever since and currently runs a tree company in London. Romilly and Florian live in Buckinghamshire at the moment and have had three children together - Finnlay, William Wolf and Flora. Finn is buried next to his grandfather in Balquhidder.
