This Camperdown Elm was planted in 1895 and survived transplantation plus the ’38 hurricane. Mature specimens such as this one are essentially priceless and irreplaceable. About 4 feet up on the trunk you can clearly see the union where the tree was grafted to the upright root stock of another elm species.
