  3. Sequoia !!

  4. Along the banks of Redwood Creek, are the world's tallest known trees. The tallest is 368 feet (112.3m) and several of its neighbors are not far behind. Imagine a tree as tall as a 30-story office building, or much longer than a football field. That is what you see in this picture, but without some means of comparison, their height does not seem that great. There has been some controversy about what tree actually holds the record. Not long after the Redwood Creek grove was discovered someone else claimed to have found an even taller one, but its accurate measurement showed it to be "only" 70 m high. Loggers is Washington state and British Columbia claimed to have felled trees of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga taxifolia) over 400 feet long. The Australians have long claimed that a gum tree ( which grows in a similar environment to the coastal redwood), Eucalyptus regnant, is the tallest tree. However the tallest accurately measured eucalyptus tree (346 feet) falls short of the coast redwood by 7 meters (22 feet).

    According to the researches of Dr A.C. Carder, the tallest tree ever measured was an Australian Eucalyptus regnans at Watts River, Victoria, Australia, reported in 1872 by forester William Ferguson. It was 132.6 m (435 ft) tall and almost certainly measured over 150 m (500 ft) originally.

    Another Eucalyptus at Mt Baw Baw, Victoria, Australia, is believed to have measured 143 m (470 ft) in 1885.

    The Dyerville Giant, a coast redwood, estimated to be 1,600 years old when it fell in March 1991, was proven to be 113.4 m (372 ft) high, not counting the 1.5 m (5 ft) of buried base. It grew in Humboldt Redwoods State Park, California, USA and was the tallest tree of modern times.  





      The Lost Monarch, in the Grove of Titans, is the most massive redwood on Earth. The main trunk of a redwood can be as large as 30 feet in diameter. The tallest tree in the world stands at almost 380 feet.
