The large Southern live oaks are approximately 250 years old and are cared for with pruning and periodic feeding. Their massive branches also support other plants, including gray strands of hanging Spanish moss, which is an epiphyte and not a parasite, and resurrection fern, which grows along the tops of the main branches and looks dead when dry but becomes green again after rain.
