During his welcoming speech, US President Donald Trump remembered Queen Elizabeth II, describing it as a privilege to get to know her.
"We see today a living symbol of this centuries-old bond, just a few dozen feet to the left," he said, referring to a tree the late queen planted on White House grounds in 1991.
"Queen Elizabeth II – very, very special woman who is very greatly missed on both sides of that mighty Atlantic – long ago planted a young tree, was a very young and beautiful tree, and look at it now," he said.
Donald Trump also joked about how his mother had a "crush" on King Charles.
