Good morning. I have been trying to complete a fun quiz about UK trees and three of the clues are frustrating me! I would be really grateful for any help. I have come up with a answers for these, but they are very tenuous indeed!!

1 "Kisses grow here?"
2 "Best lifeguard prize"
3 "May have been used to secure Armada treasure"

So the answers are all trees commonly found in the UK

I will share my ideas if you don't laugh!!

Many thanks for your replies. I was thinking chest but didn't think it was quite there. Now if there's a Spanish Chestnut that would be much better!!

2. A laurel is an award, so perhaps lifeguards, who work in a bay, might receive the “Bay Laurel” ??

I was thinking about Guelder Rose which is a tree. You can get Guelder out of the word lifeguard and rose could be an award, but I much prefer your answer!

Kisses grow here - can put lips into SPINDLE which is a tree. Leaving you with NED or DEN? Lips den?? Actually that sort of works?!!
