Statement of Significance

What is significant?

Outstanding size
Curious growth form

'The Kalatha Giant' is approximately 400 years old, and is currently one of the largest living trees in Victoria. It bears a very old fire scar at its heavily buttressed base ( possibly from 1851 fires) and is hollow all the way up its trunk to where the top is broken off. Nevertheless, is it in good health for a tree in the over-mature stage
