American Chestnut - Castanea dentata - At one time, millions of
these great 'Kings of the Forest' grew in the Appalachian Mountains,
some nearly as large as Sequoias. Most were destroyed by a blight
introduced in the 1920's, and now only a handful remain. Extensive
efforts are being made to save and revitalize the American Chestnut.
Most trees planted only reach about 35-40ft. in height before dying.
The largest known tree is in Jackson county Tennessee. Hardy to -30F
(-34.4C); height: 40 ft.
