The 5th oldest living non-clonal tree in the world has been discovered in North Carolina, with an estimated age of 2624 years. It's the oldest known wetland tree.
It lives among a group of similarly ancient trees, many of which are over a millennium old.
Bald cypresses are swamp dwellers. They're very adaptable and hardy, recording stories of the changing climate in their wood. Sadly, less than 1% of North America's original bald cypress forests remain after ruthless amounts of logging.
