Here is a tree (center of photo) I measured back in 2002. The difference in the circumference was less than 2 inches. This is seven growing seasons growth. I saw only an inch and 3/4 of growth increase. The tree is growing slowly at this point and for the next 50 years the rate of growth will slow even more.
I had the tree growing 4' in this 7 years but the way I used to measure trees was not accurate enough.
Bur Oak
Tree height 64'
Circumference 97.75
Canopy 65' and 60'
Total points = 177.4
