There are a few putative survivor American Chestnut trees growing in Philadelphia, but they’ve never been tested. I’m sending in a sample of two nearby trees to the PA/NJ chapter of the American Chestnut Foundation! In ~2 months, we should know more about the tree and if it’s actually a resistant American chestnut, or a hybrid of some sort. I’ll keep you all updated! #trees #americanchestnut #castaneadentata #chestnut #tree #arborist #urbanforestry #philadelphia #philly #chestnutblight | Andrew
