Comments:
2025 comment: The tree is healthy and is handling competition well. The trunk circumference was measured 28 inches above ground level. There are 3 distinct trunks within this group. They are far enough apart that it is unclear if they are of one root stock. The tree height was challenging due to proximity to a busy road.
