This is available in the London's datastore under open government license according to the FAQ.
And no the data is not imported to OSM at this date. But the doc for natural=tree tag in OSM does have quite a lot of possible extra types, leaf_type and cycle are the most common.

Each local council will have a database of all street and park trees on their land. At some regular interval they need to inspect each tree to ensure it isn't rotten or otherwise dangerous.

#7This is the perfect app I'm looking for. Since moving to London, I fell in love with the trees here. Knowing nothing about trees before, I carry a tiny tree atlas with me. It is challenging to look up a tree from a booklet shall I say.
Simply beautiful.

#8They have data for a tree in my garden. I got the tree cut down and there was so much bureaucracy to go through just to cut it, I guess it is a protected piece of nature or something of the sort?

Its harder to terminate a tree in the UK than a human.
