Evans property, Waynesville, North Carolina, July 2008

"Loren Eiseley" (#23), shown by Russ Regnery, 7/31/08

Lee Barnes returns to Evans Property site
November 2008. Here, by seedling "Loren Eiseley"
he holds up a photo he took 20 years ago of the
biggest Torreya taxifolia tree: a female in
Norlina, NC. She is "Mom" to all but one
(all but "Celia") of the 31 seedlings that
were planted in NC July 2008, because the 2 female
trees that parented these seedlings were nurtured from
cuttings of the Norlina tree, pollinated by a male
grown from a cutting taking at the Henry Foundation
in Gladwynne, PA.
