Heritage Tree Amigos: What you need to know about trees and their S.A.P.P.

You don’t have to be a Dendrologist to identify a Heritage Tree. What you do need to know, however, is something about a tree’s S.A.P.P. What is its STORY? What are its ARBOREAL characteristics type age, size, etc? What PEOPLE and/or PLACE give the tree its significant historical value and rate it as a Heritage tree?
