Most forests in New Zealand have had some logging and there's nothing with big trees near me now. But I have spent time in some of New Zealand's old-growth forests. It's truly magical. We do have forests that look like the old-growth forests of your imagination.

Trees, especially the old large growth trees have always had a special place in my heart. If you have never had the opportunity to visit the Edison Museum in Ft Myers, Fl to see the India Banyan tree you should, it is a treat. The tree covers a full acre today. Banyan trees, as you know, throw down roots from the branches as they grow because the branches themselves are larger than most trees. Wonderful article and so happy that there are original growth forests still remaining.
