Is this a parody or fiction site???

I actually clicked this one.

WT actual F!??

There is no description of this tree, or what breed it is, or what it’s botanical name is.

Even worse, there is this ironic gem of seeming contradictions:

“...this breed of ancient tree has survived all sorts of environmental shifts throughout time...”

Yet...

“As the climate changes, it is likely that mortality rates in trees will increase...”

Of course!
heh

The article achieves something CNN, MSNBC, etc constantly strive for: a completely content-free communication. Reading this article expecting to learn something is like drinking tap water hoping to get nutrition from it

I have advanced degrees in Horticulture and Botany, and have never heard of this species/cultivar...
