¿Cuál es el árbol más antiguo de Naples?

Naples's oldest documented tree is the Canforo del Giardino dei Principi, a camphor tree in the Real Bosco di Capodimonte planted in the early 1800s and roughly 220 years old, brought directly from China during the Bourbon era. It grows in the Garden of the Princes, a free section of the park in the north of the city.

Naples tops Italy's own official register of monumental trees, the national list created under a 2013 law, with more catalogued specimens than any other municipality in the country. Most of that count concentrates in one place, the Real Bosco di Capodimonte, the former Bourbon royal hunting estate whose Garden of the Princes and Royal Orchard the park's own museum has singled out as home to six specifically monumental trees. Among those, the camphor tree of the Garden of the Princes is the one most consistently dated, at roughly 220 years old, brought from China in the early 1800s and now one of the largest camphor trees anywhere in Europe. A second camphor in the nearby Royal Orchard and a Montezuma cypress share the same garden but only carry a broad 19th century estimate, undated precisely by any single source, a gap common to several other trees on this list. The park is free to enter in most sections.
