  • The girth of this tree is actually 5.95 m at a height of 1.5 m above ground level. I measured it twice this morning. Paul Howard-Kyan.

  • Paul, thank you. My measurement was an estimate, and it appears way out! Appreciate you correcting me. The main thing is that it is not only me who is impressed by this magnificent tree.
