Comments:
2026 comments: Tree is growing vigorously. It originated as a volunteer seedling that was transplanted to this location. It has been pruned repeated to develop a dominant central leader and strong branches. Lower trunk is scarred and disfigured due to deer rubbing their antlers on the trunk in the past.
