It’s not easy to find a picture of Hyperion, the world’s tallest tree, but yesterday I found a great composite photo on Robert Krulwich’s blog. He’s a great writer, so I recommend that everyone read his post. The photo is so good though, I’ve taken the liberty of sharing it with you here.
CORRECTION: This is a photo of Stratosphere Giant! My mistake, and thank you to Checkit who caught my error.

Amazing!!!
Beautiful….and so clever, to glob onto the scroll quality of the webpage.
Actually, this is not Hyperion. It’s Stratosphere Giant. The blog you linked states so. Stratosphere Giant was dethroned by Hyperion, which is 10ft taller.
Thank you for catching my error, Checkit!
