tallest tree
Canopy's highest point
The tallest tree is whichever tree currently holds the record for greatest height—at present, a coast redwood in California named Hyperion, standing over 380 feet.
The phrase also works comparatively: That's the tallest tree in our yard.
Tallest tree questions appear constantly in trivia contexts.
