Seven Sisters Oak
Mandeville, Louisiana

One of the most requested trees by Stephen Malkoff collectors is the Seven Sisters Oak in Mandeville, Louisiana.

The stately and renowned Seven Sisters,  is an imposing tree with a girth of 40 feet. It sits at the edge of Mandeville, near Lake Pontchartrain.

Why the "seven sisters?" For many years it was thought that the tree was actually seven trees grown closely together. In fact, it is one tree with seven distinct trunks. It spans more than 130-feet from branch to branch. However, the tree was originally named the Doby 's Seven Sisters . . . for the seven daughters of the Doby family.
