This is in a place called Big Tree Park!  This park was also the home of the 3.500 year tree (The Senator) that was burned down a few years ago.

There are so many interesting trees and tree species in the world; as a wood worker and wannabe carpenter I enjoy working with wenge, zebrawood, purpleheart, and others with cool grain or uniquie colors. BUt for the most interesting I'm going with the koa tree, and specifically the Kona Hema Preserve on the island of Hawai'i. 

• The tree only grows in Hawai'i, so it is one of the rarest species in the world 
• It has significant cultural and spiritual value for the people of Hawai'i
• The grain is unique and stunningly beautiful; it is prized among wood crafters
• It is a great tonewood and is used for stringed instruments, mostly ukeleles.

The Great Banyan Tree in West Bengal, India, is certainly fascinating.  It's more than 250 years old, and they had to amputate the main trunk back in the 1920's due to it rotting... so that the remainder of the tree would continue to thrive.  I haven't seen it, but was fortunate enough to see another massive banyan tree just outside St. Paul's Cathedral in Kolkata.

I personally love flowering trees such as the Japanese Cherry Blossom tree. When I lived in Japan I loved experiencing all of the Cherry Blossom festivals ( Sakura Festival). It was picturesque seeing their petals scattering the parks like freshly fallen flurries of snow. In fact, I loved them so much when I purchased my home I planted a Sakura tree out front! Additionally, now that I live in the Washington DC area I make a point to go to the Monuments and enjoy the sights of all the Cherry Blossoms while I wait for my tree get bigger!
