I believe the answer is:

teak

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'tree' is the first definition.
(I know that teak is a type of tree)

'planted in the park here and there' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for teak that I've seen before include "Valuable, dense wood" , "E. Indies hardwood" , "Hard wood used for furniture" , "Heavy wood of a tall evergreen Asian tree" , "Hardwood found naturally in the Far East" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
