What is the type of tree described in a diary that was given to Otto Frank?
Anne Frank tree The Anne Frank tree (Dutch: Anne Frankboom or, incorrectly, "Anne Frank boom") was a horse-chestnut tree ("Aesculus hippocastanum") in the city center of Amsterdam that was featured in Anne Frank's "The Diary of a Young Girl". Anne Frank described the tree from The Annexe, the building where she and her family were hiding from the Nazis during World War II.
Melaleuca quinquenervia Melaleuca quinquenervia, commonly known as the broad-leaved paperbark, paper bark tea tree, punk tree or niaouli, is a small- to medium-sized tree of the myrtle family, Myrtaceae. It grows as a spreading tree up to 20 m tall, with its trunk covered by a white, beige and grey thick papery bark. The grey-green leaves are egg-shaped, and cream or white bottlebrush-like flowers appear from late spring to autumn. It was first formally described in 1797 by the Spanish naturalist Antonio José Cavanilles.
