The Daimyo Oak

"The tree was donated by Dr. Robert Gotcher. Historically this is one of the most important bonsai and the longest in cultivation in the United States. In 1863 during Lincoln's presidency, Mr. Burlingame was envoy to China. This tree was a gift to him as he passed through Japan on his return to the US."
