BIGGEST Trees in the World

It’s no secret that there are some trees on our planet that are almost unbelievably and inexplicably large, but which are the biggest of the big? Here, we’ll delve into which trees and which families of trees hold the great distinctions of being among the most massive trees to ever have lived and which are the largest living today. These things are mesmerizing and perplexing all in one. This is nature at its most massive and beautiful. This is Biggest Trees in the World!

Eucalyptus Regnans Victoria in southeastern Australia or Tasmania is where you’re going to find this next eucalyptus on our list! If you don’t recognize the name, maybe you’ll recognize some of its other names: swamp gum, stringy gum, Tasmanian Oak, or mountain ash. It’s obviously one of the tallest trees in the world (hence why it’s on here with some of these other big boys) and it’s the tallest flowering plant on planet Earth! Forests that are dominated by mature Eucalyptus regnans’ have been proven to be more carbon-dense than any other known forests in the world and a forest located in the O’Shannassy River catchment contained 1,867 tonnes (2,058 tons) of carbon per hectare or 2.47 acres. That’s a lot of carbon! The trees themselves grow to around 85 meters (279 feet) tall and to about 391 cubic meters (13,800 cubic feet) in volume. However, the tallest living regnans at the moment shoots 99.82 meters (327.5 feet) into the sky. 4. Western Redcedar This next giant tree hails from North America and is a member of the cypress family known as Cupressaceae, and it too goes by many names. Pacific redcedar, giant cedar, shinglewood, and western or giant arborvitae are all common aliases of this tree, as well as its scientific name, Thuja plicata. It’s mostly found throughout the Pacific Northwest and is commonly associated with the western hemlock and Douglas-fir in the places that it grows. It is shade tolerant, meaning it can grow well in areas of dense shade and partly because of this tolerance it has become very popular and has been introduced to places all over the world. It’s classified as a large to very large tree and stands between 65 to 70 meters (213 to 230 feet) tall and has a volume of up to 449 cubic meters or 15,900 cubic feet! 3. Kauri This big, beautiful coniferous tree is part of the genus Agathis, and it typically goes by its Maori name of Kauri, but scientifically it’s known as Agathis australis. It’s located in New Zealand, in its northern districts of North Island. It is not the tallest tree in all of New Zealand, but by volume, it’s most definitely the biggest, and that’s what counts here. It grows to be up to 516 cubic meters or 18,200 cubic feet, making it the third biggest tree by volume on this list! Forests made up of Kauri trees are among some of the oldest forests in the world, and some of the antecedents of the modern Kauris even date way back to the Jurassic period, some 135 to 190 million years ago. The Kauri is also different than a lot of other trees because of a defense mechanism it has for not allowing parasites to overtake it. The bark of the Kauri sheds consistently and piles up at the base of the trees, sometimes stacking to a height of 2 meters (6.5 feet). As we mentioned, they’re not super tall and only grow to be up to 50 meters (164 feet) tall, but their immense girth definitely makes their height not matter much. The record for largest Kauri was a tree called “The Great Ghost,” and that grew to 8.54 meters in diameter and had a girth of 26.83 meters! 2. Coast Redwood This famous tree is also known as the coastal redwood, California redwood, and scientifically as Sequoia sempervirens. Now, you may know the name redwood because they’re known to be some of the biggest trees in the world, and that’s no lie. The species includes the tallest living trees on the planet, and speaking of living; these bad boys do that for a long, long time. Between 1,200 and 1,800 years is their typical lifespan, which also makes them some of the longest living things that we know of. They’re found along the coast in much of California and in the southwestern coastal areas of Oregon. Redwoods stand around 115.5 meters (379 feet) tall, not including their immense roots, and come in at around 1,084.5 cubic meters (38,300 cubic feet) in volume. They’re absolutely gigantic! 1...
