Yesterday my brother and I went out to see the largest Osage Orange, but it turned out to be a Sassafras67848 67849tree in the world according to the owner. It's on highway 32 east about 20 miles from Lebanon, MO.
He said it was in the Guinness Book, but I could not find it. Anyone else know of a larger one?

Why don't I see a chain saw in your hands?
Record trees information I think are kept by AMerican Forestry Association.

That would make a lot of Sassafras tea also (from the roots). The dryed leaves also make Gumbo File (pronounced feelay from us southern cajans).
Everything good on those trees.
