James,
Don't forget our eastern height champ! http://www.nativetreesociety.org/fieldtrips/ohio/greattrees/great_trees_of_o hio.htm Will F. Blozan President, Eastern Native Tree Society President, Appalachian Arborists, Inc. _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James Parton Sent: Tuesday, March 03, 2009 8:14 PM To: ENTS Subject: [ENTS] The Chestnut Project ENTS, I have finally compiled a tentative list on superlative chestnut trees found and measured by ENTS members. It concentrates it's attention on the American Chestnut but is open to all Castanea species. On the American tree I have set the lower limit for height at 25 feet but exceptions can be made if the tree for example has a really wide spread or large girth. This is my first real attempt at using Microsoft Excel so excuse me if it is a bit crude. I gleaned the data from ENTS posts on the Chestnut Project page of the ENTS website as well as other places on our website. It should become better and more complete as time goes on. Get out there and measure some Chestnuts! Thank you Ed for your help and encouragement on the Chestnut Project.
