The Angel Oak
The Angel Oak is a Southern live oak tree located in Angel Oak Park, on Johns Island, South Carolina. It may be the oldest tree east of the Mississippi River
The Angel Oak is property of and maintained by the City of Charleston, South Carolina. It is estimated to be 300-400 years old, stands 65 ft (20 m) tall, measures 28 ft (8.5 m) in circumference, and shades with its crown an area of 17,000 square feet (1,600 m2).[1] Its widest crown spread point-to-point is 180 ft, which is longer than any other live oak in the country. Its longest limb is 105 feet (32 m) in length.
I'm posting two pics here. One doesn't even show the full tree and one shows the size of the spreading branches coming out from the trunk. I do have a pic of the whole tree but you just can't get a feel of how big it is with that pic
