    Italy determined to save “Patriarch” a millennial olive tree

    Patriarch is really Sa Tanca Manna, the name with which it has been registered in the List of Monumental Trees from the Italian Ministry of Agriculture

    Italy is determined to save Patriarch, a millennial olive tree which the forest fires in Sardinia have devoured, but has mobilized tens of experts to try and recover this rare botanic antiquity. Patriarch is a wild olive, with a ten meters circumference trunk, some seventeen meters high which was almost completely destroyed by fire.
