The Big Tree, named State Champion Coastal Live Oak (Quercus virginiana) in 1969, is one of the largest in the nation. Centuries old, the Big Tree has a circumference of 35 feet and a crown spread of 90 feet. The tree is 44 feet tall. Possibly over 1500 years old…how old does that make Conception’s oaks?
