Another opportunity for a fake news accusation tweet that is dead on target. They make it so easy.
The Park service will decide.
fake news
Southern Magnolias are racist trees.
Do something significant with the wood.
The decision to take down the tree may have had less to do with the state of the original than the state of the new clone.
These guys know what they are doing.
But no outrage about a group of 50 foot “racist” trees that will be removed in Palm Springs for no good reason.

Oh the horror....an old tree is being cut down. Impeach Trump!! /sarc
Its dead Jim. :-)
Years ago Rush was commenting on an old tree that had to be cut down. A few people were going to hold a funeral for it!
Rush said, “Trees are a crop! It’s like holding a funeral for an ear of corn!”
They have 8-10 foot offshoots growing nearby? Those are pretty good sized trees. What is everyone getting so bent out of shape about? The tree lives on!
Magnolias are living things and so have finite lifespans...Average for a Southern Magnolia is around 100 years, so this one has done well to make it this long...
I heard it was used in a couple of lynchings back in the day.

That’ll shut ‘em up..........
Better headline
Tree planted with shoddy soil by disgruntle slaves ready to fall down.
You can see an offspring of the Jackson Magnolia at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda, Calif.
Those shoots from the original tree are probably considered to be the age of the original tree.
If a seed fell off and those are seedlings, then no. But if they popped up from the roots, then they could be.
A bonsaied tree, is considered to be the age of the tree it was taken from, if it grows from a cutting and not a seed.
I would welcome a correction if others find this to be inaccurate.
This is how I have understood it.
That witch. Trees are living creatures. actually, as soon as you start suspecting that a tree is a little sketch, it is time to cut it down.
I just looked at Twitter, and after telling more than a dozen liberals that they’ve been taken in by the media, I gave up. There are even more tweets from conservatives about the misleading headline, though.
