Common Hackberry 12 x 100 feet George Fieo
March 15, 2009

ENTS,

Over the weekend I did a Rucker Index for the Cedar Hollow Preserve located
in Chester Co., Pa.  I noticed a large hackberry on a small ridge in the NE
corner of the preserve which sits above the flood plain of Cedar Hollow Run.
When I reached the tree it turned out to be two separate trees sharing a
common base.  I was able to get my tape measure between the two and measured
the taller one at 12'3" x 114.2.  I think it's a new NE height record.  I'll
post the preserves RI later this week.
