Story

The tree possesses three distinct stems. The central stem has the greatest girth, but the right (east) stem twists around to become the dominant leader with the greatest height and vitality (flowering profusely in the photos). A seam of included bark is evident between each stem running from ground line up to 4'-5' above ground. It is hard to discern from outward examination whether the stems share a pith union above ground line.

Location:

State: VA

County: Smyth

This tree is not publicly accessible.
