These giant redwood trees grow to an average height of 60 meters but can actually reach heights of over 100 meters.
�Hyperion�, the tallest redwood, is 115.5 meters tall and can be found in the Redwood National Park near San Francisco.
Interestingly, a subspecies of this group does not grow as tall but instead expands in width, growing very large diameter shafts. �General Sherman� is the widest of this subspecies with a diameter or 11.1 meters.
