Re: TT: Significance of individual trees
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
There is an oak on campus of Univ.of Ga., Athens, Ga., that was rumored to
have been given to the college by Adolph Hitler during the late 1930s. The
tree is located on South Campus at the Collisiem. Dr. Mike Dirr,
Horticulture Dept. has keyed the tree out, but I cannot recall the name.
Craig/Athens,Ga.
