The Biggest Tree in the World

"The Tule Tree is located in the town center of Santa María del Tule in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, approximately 9 km east of the city of Oaxaca on the road to Mitla. It is a Montezuma Cypress (Taxodium mucronatum), or Ahuehuete (meaning "deep water") in Nahuatl. It has the stoutest trunk of any tree in the world." -- from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Árbol_del_Tule
