Summerlin Ave. The big live oak at Constitution Green Park in Downtown Orlando is probably 125-175 years old. The tree has recumbent branching on one side, with branches touching the ground. There was another tree on the opposite side and as a result, crown adaptation – forcing the growth of branches in other directions – occurred. #2: Dickson Azalea Park 100 Rosearden Dr. Around 100 years old, the Long Leaf Pine trees at Dickson Azalea Park are extremely tall because they need to be taller than the Oak trees alongside the ravine in which they grow. #1: Mayor Carl T.
