One of the most sought after attributes of a tree is the surface roots (aka Nebari).  They take a very long time to develop and the help define the front of your tree.  They are what shows the stability and strength of the tree.  I travelled to Big Tree Park in Longwood Florida  to see the world’s 5th oldest tree, the Senator.  It is estimated to be over 3500 years old.  I also did a short video on devoping and the importance of Nebari.
