How Old is the Oldest Tree?

Glad you asked...
The oldest living single, original tree is Methuselah in California at 4,800 years of age. However, when you consider a special class of tree called "clonal tree" the record could go to Pando (80,000 to 1 Million years old, but highly disputed) of Utah, or Jurupa Oak (13,000 years) of California.
