Forestry ID

Post by Jim_R »

Similar to the other ID games, post an answer to the previous question. If the poster confirms answer, post the next question.
-The path of the Administrator is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.

-Nothing\'s gonna get deleted. We\'re gonna be like three little Fonzies here. And what\'s Fonzie like? Come on, what\'s Fonzie like?
-Cool?
-Correctamundo. And that\'s what we\'re gonna be. We\'re gonna be cool. Now, I\'m gonna count to three, and when I count three, you let go of your mouse, and back away from the keyboard. But when you do it, you do it cool. Ready? One... two... three.

@kjhsscioly, I thought you made the thread. Anyways, let's start off with an easy one:

1. What tree is known for being the tallest in the world and where is it found?

Haha, there is more than one sequoia (it is a genus). Which one? Also, I think it would be best to use hide tags for answering the questions.

No, I think it's Sequoia semiperverens, coast redwood.

What is the oldest tree ever found?

I'm not sure if I phrased this corrrectly, but the oldest individual tree ever found, not a clonal colony.
And the oldest colony is Quaking Aspen, which is, believe it or not, more than 80,000 years old.
