TREE AGING APP - How old is this tree?

Identify the Type of Tree
If you don’t know, you can do an Internet search to identify the tree, or use an identification app such as 
Seek or PictureThis. Leaves are a good way to ID trees. 
Bring a Measuring Tape
​You will need a flexible tape measure, preferably at least 120 inches long. 
Measure the Circumference of the Tree
​
Wrap the tape measure around the tree 4.5 feet off the ground (standard height), and measure to the nearest inch. Enter the type of tree and circumference into the app below.
