Meycauayan Tree
Meycauayan Tree is one of the three acacia trees ''(Samanea saman)'', located in the patio of the Parish Church of St. Francis of Assisi in Meycauayan City, Bulacan, Philippines. Planted by an unknown person, it have stood on the grounds of the parish church for almost a century and a half, mute witness to the religious devoutness of its parishioners under the patronage of Saint Francis of Assisi. This tree has been a mute witness to the significant events of the town; public meetings and assemblies, fiestas and religious devotions, the joys of weddings and baptisms of generations of their townspeople, even their grief and tears at funeral processions of loved ones leaving the church. 〔As written in the historical marker.〕
The Meycauayan Tree planted in front of the facade of the church bears historic significance. In 1890, President Manuel L. Quezon serving as a young sexton at this church used to play under this tree.〔 Lansigan, Nicolas P., The Vanishing Living Links with Our Past, Quezon City : Tree Preservation Foundation of the Philippines, 1983〕 In 1982, the Tree Preservation Foundation of the Philippines recognized the tree and installed a marker. The marker was lost sometime in 2004 to thieves and is replaced in 2014.
