This Hickory leaf is extremely large. Both leaves have great detail preserved - the reticulation and venation are clearly seen. The fabulous color makes for a striking display. The beautiful leaves are well showcased on the large plate of shale. This is a very uncommon leaf association from an unusual location in Montana.
