Carob tree

Carrer d'Olot, 15

Observations:
The carob trees in Parc Güell are of interest, but the specimen which is presented here is an interesting natural phenomenon. This carob tree, with a trunk perimeter of 90cm, is a shoot of a tree that reached a perimeter of 4 metres which had an unusual shape similar to the Gaudí lines of the architecture in the rest of the park.
