Magnolia (planted in 1829) in honor of Rachel Jackson at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue

Southern Magnolia tree will be cut down

this week at White House -- it has stood

almost 2 centuries -- planted by incoming

President Andrew Jackson as he took office

in 1829.

UPDATE: The Hill dot-com

reports the tree nearly 200 years old was

removed from the 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

"House of the People" / Executive Mansion

in District of Columbia -- another tree will

be planted there that is an "offspring sapling".
