The pictured tree is in between Meadows of the Dan and Floyd. It is a true giant. Exactly the type of tree we are hoping to produce.

I am going to go collect pollen from the tree (called Floyd4) on July 5. It should be in full bloom by then. There are two other large trees within half a mile of Floyd4 so we will collect pollen from those too.

Anyone who wants to join me, please let me know. After the pollen collection we can go hike the Rocky Knob trails or get lunch in Meadows of the Dan.

I will say this, for a tree that is supposed to be near extinct, it is really cool to find one that you cannot wrap your arms around. This is one of those trees.
