Description

Trees grace the streets, parks, and neighborhoods of Charlotte, NC. Hidden among them are very special trees called "Treasure Trees," a select group of champions chosen because of their large size, age, or historical significance. This book describes ten treasure trees of Charlotte's urban forest and provides an understanding of our city's past and present history.
