The oldest living plant on earth lives in San Diego

The Jurupa Oak at 13,000 years old. Yeah the same one you probably hiked on by looking for butterflies.

That’s 1000 years older than a previously identified Palm Springs creosote bush, 8,000 years older than Bristlecone pines, and 10,000 years older than the “ancient” redwoods. Bunch of fakers those redwoods.

whatever
Boston Herald —Spring has sprung, the sap is rising, time for cemetery syrup for your pancakes. Public officials are investigating unknown people tapping maple trees in area graveyards.
