 Re: Oldest tree in the World
Ekka....I though this might be of interest. It was recently determined that a Western Australian mallee or 'Eucalyptus phylacis' had been estimated to be in the vicinity of 6380 years (Rossetto et al. 1999) or could be as old as 6660 years (Scott 2003). Anyway, I originally saw this on ABC’s Gardening Australia program a couple of years ago. Its quiet amazing that the tree has survived all this time.
