This is a huge, and actually very old, Banyan tree. With an actually very old guy in blue at the bottom providing scale.
I doubt if any of the original tree trunk is left, as the aerial roots come down and grow around the trunk and create new "trunks" around the tree to support it.
Actually, I think I posted something about this tree a while back. Let's see, search, search, search.... Got it; I Knew Things Were Old In Florida

Unfortunately, I've never read your previous blog about this tree. Thanks for posting another one this time.
Yes, I do agree that it's a very old tree. But lucky for your to discover such tree. You can't easily find like that nowadays anywhere.
I never see a Banyan tree nowadays. Lucky for you to be able to see one.
