Do trees hold the secret to the fountain of youth?
Did you know that there are trees living in the United States that are almost 5,000 years old? Click here to read some fascinating information and see beautiful pictures of Bristlecone Pine trees found in California's White Mountains.
In the American Museum of Natural History, they have this HUGE slice of a tree trunk. Bonzai trees or however you spell them live a long time too, even though they're actually miniature trees.
ReplyDeleteThis reminded me of when my cousin was researching this disease where you grow bark-like stuff on your skin.

oh wow. 5,000 yrs old? its so weird if u think about it. because if u touch one of those old trees, a really primitive human, like a caveman or something might have touched the same tree too. Wow that is sooooo cool and weird.
ReplyDeleteI read once something about California's red trees or something?
ReplyDeleteWeren't they like really old and tall?
What about redwoods
ReplyDeletehow long do they live
that is soooooooooo cool i cant believe a tree can live that long. they have watched the world change kinda. except trees don't have eyes so i guess maybe not.
