Oldest trees

Hi friends,
The bristlecone pines in California and Nevada, USA, are almost 5,000 years old and were long believed to be the oldest trees. Latest research suggests that creosote bushes in the USA’s Mojave Desert may be even older- some of these plants began life nearly 12,000 years ago. Thank you.
