Comments: The tree appears healthy and sound. The larger of two longleaf pines standing together.
2019 update: The tree appears to be healthy. However, there is significant wisteria growing on the tree. We were able to cut away some of the vines but others were too thick. This tree is very close to the side of the road but does not appear to be in danger of road widening.
