The biggest tree, by volume, is the General Sherman, a Giant Sequioa, Sequioadendron giganteum, in the Sequoia National Park in California.By height it is the 379ft Coast Redwood, Sequioa sempervirens, in the Redwood National Park in California
Here is a link a webpage about the largest tree. I read in the news last year, that they found a couple of trees in California that are a tad bigger. They try to keep the location secret so nobody will vandalize them: http://www.ufei.org/BigTrees/intro.html (The picture is an Australian Fig - not the sequoia tree called The General Sherman.) Here is a story about the newly discovered trees. I think these trees are the tallest trees instead of the largest trees. Redwoods are taller, and sequoias are wider: http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=14&click_id=143&art_id=qw1157663343482B223
