2,000 year old tree in South Africa called The Tree of Life. The boabab tree.

Some hollowed out trunks have been used to provide shelter to as many as 40 people, it can hold up to 4,500 liters of water, fibers from the bark can be turned into rope and cloth and fresh leaves are often eaten to boost the immune system.

The medicinal properties of the boabab fruit are amaze balls: 3 times as much Vitamin C as an orange
