The Senator

World's Oldest Trees (4)

The Senator in Florida is currently not alive. Two natural disasters that occurred caused this tree to disappear. The tree species was named Taxodium Ascendens.

The Senator was a 3500-year-old bald cypress tree. Its original height was 50 meters and its width was 10.7 meters. It was destroyed by a hurricane in 1925 and its height became shorter. After that, it was destroyed by a fire in 2012.

The thing that caused the tree to burn was the cigarette smoked under the tree. Unfortunately, the people who caused the slow extinction of our world caused this tree to disappear as well.

Some artists make trinket-like items from the remains of the tree and keep them as souvenirs.

Gran Abuelo

World's Oldest Trees (2)

Gran Abuelo, one of the oldest trees in the world currently alive, is 3646 years old and lives in Chile. This tree, which belongs to the Patagonian Cypress family, is under protection in Chile’s A thousand Costero National Park.

The meaning of Gran Abuelo is that Great Grandfather. As a result of the researches done on the tree in the 1990s, it was stated that the tree sprouted in 1500 BC. Besides, it was stated that if other trees in the national park are examined, there may be more rooted trees.

Sarv-e Abarkuh

Methuselah

World's Oldest Trees (8)

The Methuselah tree, which has a more ancient history than the Egyptian Pyramids, is 4850 years old and still alive. This tree, which has survived from ancient times to the present day, was named after Methuselah, the oldest figure in the Bible. This tree, which is located in the state of California in the USA and has been closed today, is currently grown. Since 2003, a tree farmer named Jared Milarch has been cloning and producing this tree.

Prometheus

World's Oldest Trees (1)

If this tree were alive, it would continue its life as a tree older than the Methuselah tree. Prometheus decayed a piece of wood taken from the sap of the tree in 1964, so Prometheus disappeared. This process to find out the exact age of this tree, which is known to be more than 4000 years old, caused Prometheus to disappear.

Besides, it was determined that the tree may be around 4900 years old.

Pinus Longaeva

World's Oldest Trees (3)

Pando
