| General Notes: |
A very large impressive specimen. The tree is located on land once occupied by the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR). The house is reported to have built in the 1930's for a former director. A photo of the property taken in 1946 does not show the tree or it was very small at the time. The size of the tree now is a testament to the reason the DSIR chose this location. Information supplied by current owner J. Spicer.
The tree is a Category A protected tree on the Tasman District Resource Management Plan and listed as PT204. Cadwallader, BG. 2009. |
