More than 200 Cyathea trees were found in the deep mountains of Wenquan town, in Changning county of Baoshan, Yunnan province, recently. The sight is rarely seen.

The average height of the trees is 5 to 6 meters. The highest reached 14 meters, with a root diameter of 60 centimeters. It looks like a huge umbrella from a distance.

Also known as a tree fern, the plant emerged on Earth about 200 to 300 million years ago. It was food for dinosaurs. Scientists call it a "living fossil".
