Those Magnificent Trees ...

Imagine coming up with your own list of the "10 Most Magnificent Trees of the World". Well, that's exactly what Neatorama did even going so far as to rank them in descending order.

Now my humble 4 Incredible Trees post pails in comparison but I have discussed some of Neatorama's list before - see my posts on the Baobab and the Sequoia.

Whenever a list of this magnitude is compiled there are many dissenters willing to propose their own Top 10 so I'm keen to hear what trees you would have added, had you been producing the list.

Thanks! I do have a soft spot for trees.

Thanks for the tree links, Stuart. I enjoyed your tree observations, especially the Jacaranda photo.

Although I've never seen it in person, the Tule Tree was already immortalized on ViewMaster reels when I was a child. [Did anyone else see travel reels with a ViewMaster?] That was probably the first time I realized how enormous trees could be.

Annie - I did have a ViewMaster but probably didn't get into the whole documentary type slides while I was a kid. Mine was used more for Disney slides and the like.
