What is the largest tree in America??

Question

Hey I'm trying to do homework and I'm trying to see What the largest tree is in American and I cant find it ANYWHERE. Please please help me out. That would be great :))

Answer 1

General Sherman Tree: The General Sherman Tree is 274.9' (83.8 meters) tall, and 102.6' (31.3 meters) in circumference at its base. Other trees in the world are taller: the tallest tree in the world is the Coast Redwood, which averages 300' - 350' (91.4 - 106.7 meters) in height. A cypress near Oaxaca, Mexico has a greater circumference, 162' (49.4 meters). But in volume of wood, the Sherman has no equal. With 52,500 cubic feet (1486.6 cubic meters) of wood, the General Sherman Tree earns the title of the World's Largest Tree.

Answer 2

The Redwood Sequoia in California is the tallest tree in America.  I'm not sure if that's what you're going for but that's my guess.

Answer 3

In terms of height: Mendocino tree (Sequoia sempervirens, 367.5 feet)

In terms of volume:General Sherman (a Giant Sequoia, 52,508 cubic feet)

Answer 4

The largest by mass is the Giant Sequoia, sequioadendron gigantium. The tallest is the Coast Redwood, sequoia sempervirans.
