George Harrison Memorial Tree Killed By Beetles

A tree planted in 2004 in Los Angeles as a memorial to George Harrison has been killed by an infestation of beetles.

Uproxx reports that the sapling, which had grown to more than ten feet tall, was planted near Griffith Observatory in memory of Harrison, who spent his last years in Los Angeles before dying in 2001 at the age of 58. Harrison, an avid gardner for most of his adult life, was cremated at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

A councilman told the Los Angeles Times that the tree will be replaced soon.
