Sorry Bootandall, didn't mean to ignore you. It is a stunning tree, And a famous one too. It even has a rug named after it. LOL. So true. http://www.karastan.com/carpet_detail_print.asp?carpetid=597...

And an interesting story about it too! I think it was the 1970s when a fired employee snuck back into the ground with a chain saw. He girdled both Elms all the way around!!! DO you believe it? How sick is that? But the trees didn't skip a beat and lived. Today you can see the damage.
