caption_attribution_description: In 1876, a visiting seaman supposedly gave a seedling of this Morton Bay Fig tree to a girlfriend in Category:Santa Barbara, Southern California. A year later, the friend replanted it in its current location - the corner of Chapala and Montecito. It is now one of the largest of all Ficus macrophylla trees in the United States. It is on the California Register of Big Trees. The tree averages 80' in height, 176' in average crown spread and over 40' in diameter. "It is an awesome sight!"
context_page_description: The Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows is a historic five-star hotel located near the beach in Santa Monica, California, not far from the Santa Monica Pier. The property was originally a private estate, built in 1889. It was converted to a hotel in 1921.
context_section_description: In addition to planting the Miramar property's original rose garden, and the trees that line some of Santa Monica's streets, Georgina Jones is perhaps best-known for planting a Moreton Bay Fig Tree, which she received as a gift.
  The tree still stands in the hotel's front courtyard, at a height of 99 feet (30 m), with a 129 feet (39 m) canopy, and a trunk 569 inches (1,450 cm) in girth, and is listed on the Official Registry of California Big Trees.
