This isn’t a tree but
I thought your young gardeners would enjoy an gardening adventure, growing the TickleMe Plant (Mimosa pudica). Recently featured by the National Gardening Association, http://www.kidsgardeningstore.com/14-1030.html
If you want to give your young gardeners an experience they will never forget, consider having them grow a TickleMe Plant. This is the plant that will close its leaves and lower its branches when you tickle it. They sprout in days and can be grown indoors any time of year. Just Google TickleMe Plants or go to http://www.TickleMePlant.com for information seeds and growing kits. This plant has turned many kids into plant and nature lovers. I know, because I grow TickleMe Plants in my classroom.
Happy Growing

Very nice pix and info. I grew up a few miles from the Emancipation Oak and never knew it was there.

Question: I thought that the bristlecone pines were the earth’s oldest trees at 4000 years; so how can the baobab be 6000 years old? I also thought carbon dating could only date dead material, but that may not be true.

Nobert,
Great article! If god hadn\'t planted a tree, we wouldn\'t be able to enjoy its many conviences, such as paper, and of course everyones favorite convience, the house. I have a maple tree in my back yard. Though my yard is small I wouldn\'t have bought the house without it. I have had many great cookouts under this tree. The day it dies will be the day I move. Trees are one of gods most beautiful wonders.One of my favorite tree is the Rain tree. One of my aunts and uncles used to have a Rain tree in they\'re back yard. My cousins and I would play under this tree for hours. The trees on your list I like the most are the Emancipation tree, the Ginkgo, the Major Oak, and the tree of Life.Excellent article.!!! Keep up the great work Nobert.
