Growing at the Long Branch Nature Center (Arlington Co. Park) this 2007 Champion has a score of 41. 10" CBH, Crown Spread 21x19', Height 26'
It is in good health, approximately 30' off woodland trail.

Due to its small size it is not easily seen or recognized from the trail -- so first look for a whole stand of Aralia and then you should spy the largest! It is about 30' off the trail on the west side.

You can reach the trail by parking at the Long Branch Nature Center off George Mason Rd. Or park on S Jefferson St and 6th St S, and follow wooded trail from the corner.
