A perfect location in which to have a Moon Tree. It was planted in honor of Earth Day and the 40th anniversary of the Apollo Program at NASA, at the National Arboretum in Washington on April 22, 2009. The tree was grown from a second-generation seed from seeds flown to the moon and returned to Earth by the crew of Apollo 14 in 1971.
The coordinates are best to find the moon tree as it is not labeled and most of the landmarks in the photos from the original planting of the tree are now gone.

Note: I found this tree in poor condition and have sent the Arboretum a note about it in hopes they clean it up and maybe add a plaque or tag.
