The copper beech tree




This is a photo I took of a copper beech tree at Sagamore Hill, the home of President Theodore Roosevelt.




Drew and I went to Sagamore Hill in May, 2016.  I wrote about our visit here.

So I was sad to learn, earlier this week, that the copper beech tree had to be cut down.

The tree, planted in the 1890's, had become diseased. 

But a sapling taken from the original tree will be planted in its place.

I guess life goes on.

  1. I'm glad to hear that they'll replace the tree. Circle of life, I guess. Everything dies eventually.

  3. I'd read about the tree going but not about the sapling. Good to hear that!
