This is a sculpture of a Camperdown Elm in Brooklyn's Prospect Park that I walk past every day. The tree grows from a cutting presented by Mr. A.G. Burgess to Prospect Park in 1872. It had been snipped from the original mutant elm growing on the grounds of Camperdown House, in Dundee, Scotland, and grafted upon a Wych Elm. It is an asexual tree.
