methuselah is a great basin bristlecone pine and the oldest tree in the world at over 4,800 years old! since the actual tree’s location and appearance isn’t known to the public, i decided to add the purple pinecones and pine leaves even though it’s very unlikely that he has any. however you can visit his home at the ancient bristlecone pine forest in california!

and pando is a very old aspen clone and one of the largest and heaviest trees in the world! aspen trees most commonly reproduce asexually by root sprouting, so they’re all technically the same tree

i love them very much :’)
