General Sherman giant sequoia tree, SEQUOIADENDRON GIGANTEUM; largest tree in world in volume, In the heart of California’s Sierra Nevada is one of the most awe-inspiring sights: The giant sequoia groves in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. These towering trees are some of the world’s largest (by volume). They are as tall as an average 26-story building, and their bases can exceed the width of many city streets. Photo by Ed Cooper.
