This is the largest Japanese umbrella pine tree known in the world at ~ 2 m in diamater growing in Shizuoka Prefecture. The age of the tree is unknown but considering the growth rate of the tree it is probably over 900 years. The tree was damaged by lightning about 10 years ago so a lightning pole to attract lightning away from the tree has been constructed nearby. Only half of the trees is still alive but at least that half looks very healthy.
