    That’s champ tree in Lexington is indeed still there but it has taken sone storm damage in the past decade or 2… it was nearly perfect around 2000.
    It’s still very impressive, it’s planted at the grave of Henry clay

    They also survive when planted in Central Saskatchewan as ornamental trees 🌳

    Very helpful Johnny. I'm looking at picking some of them up to plant along our bog and marshes. Thank you.

    Johnny, thanks for the video! This is one that I’ve been wanting you to make. I never knew what a basswood tree looked like. There’s so many nectar producing trees that I can’t identify and I refer to myself as a country boy. I’m like you I trust Bob Bennie with labeling honey correctly and I wish that he would put together a sampling package of all the different honeys from the Southeast to help folks like us learn to identify the nectar sources that our honeys are produced from. Thanks again and hopefully you can film that big basswood tree next year when it’s in full bloom.

      Thanks Don! It took too long but I finally go to a basswood. I sincerely appreciate your encouragement and support! Maybe Bob has a sampler pack of SE honeys. That would be awesome. Thanks again and God bless you and yours.

      As a country boy myself, I’ve found most folks, regardless of where or how they grew up, can ID 1 in 10 trees at best… that 1 in 10 is usually an oak that they can’t ID past “that’s an oak”.
      If it’s useful to them sone folks will take the time to learn, otherwise… people don’t even see plants, it’s just the back drop.

      I was amazed that my grandpa with only 3rd grade education knew the name and potential use for every local tree, plant, and root found in nature. What golden opportunities were missed not learning more from him when I had the chance. Most folka in society today only glance at the forest without taking a close look at the trees. Thank you kindly for watching and commenting!
