Sequoias and the California Redwoods are the tallest trees. Trees are the largest plant. A tree grows itself from the outside out and in the process adds rings. Annual rings of a tree may be counted to determine the tree's age. Each leaf brings food to the tree such as energy from the sun and create carbohydrates from water and carbon dioxide in the air.
Trees produce oxygen.
Trees grow very very slowly. The blade or lamina is the broad flat part of the leaf. Leaves have two main parts, the blade and the petiole or leafstalk. Some leaves have a third part called the stipules. Petiole is the stemlike part of the leaf.
