~Tortured~

If you were to look at a cross section of this tree, you would see the tree trunk is made up of a series of concentric rings. Since a living tree adds one growth ring each year, you can determine the age of the tree by counting the number of growth rings. A core sample taken from this triple twist tree, showed it to be at least 1,350 years old. " A sign a few feet from the tree read." This tree died around 1950. The sign had a image that showed a few precarious green leaves hanging on for life.
