For the story “The Biggest Trees in Los Angeles,” writer Ryan Bradley and photographer Devin Oktar Yalkin set out on a quest to find the city's most beloved trees. Among his many finds: the coastal oak tree at Orcutt Ranch, the East Los Angeles icon The Famous Pine, and the carefully bandaged grapefruit on the plaza of the Japanese American Community and Cultural Center in Little Tokyo.
Of course, their list is not exhaustive. We want to know about your favorite trees. Tell us about a tree in Los Angeles that amazes you. What makes it special? Do you have a personal connection to it? Does it bring you peace? We would love to read your stories and see photos of the tree if you have them. We may include your response in a future story.
