This wonderful Japanese is rumored to be the most expensive tree in Seattle. Typically this species is overtrimmed into a bowl cut, but the owner let an arborist develop this one into a local monument. A local gazillionaire offered way too much money for it; when the homeowner declined, he offered to buy the house. Also declined. Can a tree be a family member, not to be sold at any price, or is it just pride in art?
