What are the tallest trees on earth? What can grow to heights of over 350 feet with amazing redish brown bark that thickens as it ages? And where can you see them?

Being dwarfed by Earth’s most massive tree, the giant sequoia, fills you with wonder. It’s hard to believe that a living thing can be so enormous and old. Also known as Sierra redwoods, the largest of these trees that live in California’s rugged Sierra Nevada mountain range, could hold a stadium full of people~  Save the Redwoods.org

I just had to name this tree “Her Majesty.”

 What is her style? Impressionistic, abstract, realistic?

If I could spend a day with her I'd like to know:
