This is a type of Ceiba tree that can reach into the heavens to well over 200 ft. and has a buttress root base that jets out from the main trunk in all directions like huge walls creating the solid base to hold up this giant.
The tree in question was hit by lightning some years back and the top came tumbling down but she has made a fantastic recovered and is alive and well. Standing in excess of 130 ft. (and still going) she has a beautiful array of canopy branches that spread out in all directions far above everything else around her.
