The discovery recently of what might be Florida’s tallest live oak tree near a hiking trail I frequent seemed to me more evidence that I live in a place of natural wonder. OK, maybe just one of the tallest live oaks. There are a lot of trees in the forests despite the best efforts of Florida land developers. As reported by The News-Journal’s Zach Dean, a hiker in Bulow Creek State Park, Jordan Hobson, noticed a live oak that soared 121 feet. By comparison, Ormond Beach’s celebrated Fairchild Oak only stands at 78 feet tall, while Florida's champion oak, the Cellon Oak, in Alachua County, is a mere 91 feet tall.
