Yeha the Whomping Willow.I've heard that the root systems of trees are as big below as above. Not sure if its true of all species. It didn't damage the house foundation (that we know of).We're going to miss it. I was asked by a francophone friend what it's girth was around the trunk. I got a chuckle and measured it. The stump is 11 feet around, but not getting into the nooks and crannies.
