This photo was taken during a visit to the Japanese Garden at the Washington Arboretum on July 11, 2007. It is of a European White Birch tree within the garden.

What is significant about this particular tree is that it was planted by Crown Princess Michiko of Japan on October 5, 1960 according to the plaque placed in front of it.
