Broadstone's Giant Sequoia
Image: © John Palmer Taken: 7 Jul 2010
Planted by a Miss Cotton in the garden of Home Cottage, 73 Higher Blandford Road, this huge tree is now 560 cms in girth. Discovered in California and only introduced to Europe in 1953, this tree will grow a lot bigger and be visible for miles. It must be Broadstone's largest tree.
