TREE/PLANT MAPS!

Below are most of the pictures I've taken of trees and their semi-exact locations on maps of San Diego! The large-scale maps are approximately 10x10 (miles), while the close-up maps are approximately 3x3 (miles). Both contain city streets (though no names...sorry) to help you actually find these trees! The maps are generated through the tiger.census.gov website (which means that if they're down, then the maps will be temporarily unavailable).

If you physically go to the "bulls eye", then you have a good chance of finding the tree/plant (unless it's at a dense location, like the San Diego Zoo). In the case of trees at the San Diego Zoo (ZOO), Catamaran (CAT), Quail Botanical Gardens (QUAIL) and Vacation Island (VAC), I've labeled them as such, and the links take you to a spot on the map showing where the park is instead of the tree (usually with 1/4 mile or so). In all other cases (even Balboa Park), the spot on the map is based on the semi-exact physical location of the tree/plant.
