The Quiz: The bald cypress is the official tree of what state?

B Florida

Stands of bald cypress (aka ‘swamp cypress’ or ‘red cypress’) are an iconic sight in Louisiana bayous, their branches draped in Spanish moss. The state adopted the cypress as its official tree on May 26, 1963, after a fourth-grade class from Baton Rouge petitioned the legislature to add it to the list of state symbols and emblems.
The correct answer to this quiz is Louisiana.
