Tasso del conte Pucci

Tasso del conte Pucci, Monumental tree in Assisi, Italy.

The Tasso del Conte Pucci is a monumental evergreen holly oak (leccio) in Assisi's historic centre, in an elevated garden above Via Borgo Aretino just before the Arco di Santa Chiara. It reaches 12.5 m in height, with a trunk circumference of 4.50 m and a crown 4.50 m across, though these figures are approximate because the tree is a cluster of basal shoots grown from the mother plant.

The tree stands in an elevated garden that belonged to the Pucci counts' residence on via Borgo Aretino, which gives the tree its local name. The nearby Arco di Santa Chiara is also called Portella dei Pucci after the same family. Photographs from the early 1900s already show the tree at a considerable size.

Locals call it tasso del conte Pucci after the noble Pucci counts, who owned the garden and residence beside via Borgo Aretino. The nearby Arco di Santa Chiara is also known as Portella dei Pucci because of that proximity. The name ties the tree to the family property rather than to Florence.

The tree sits near the Arco di Santa Chiara and is easy to reach when entering Assisi through Porta Nuova. The area is freely accessible and offers good views of the tree from multiple angles.

The tree is registered in Italy's national list of monumental trees for three criteria: age and size, form and bearing, and landscape value. Its trunk circumference of 4.50 m is one of the traits the Ministry of Agriculture uses for selection, though the multi-stem growth makes standard measurement imprecise.
