I just measured the diameter of the biggest one I currently (which has not fruited yet)..56 inches..and I am guessing over 22' tall (did not try and measure this..lol)...I will post pics of it later....and take some pics in June/July when I cut it down....
I wonder what the composition is of that "red dirt" in HI? I have a good source for (red)pumice here in Seattle, and I wonder if they're the same.

56 inches is the circumference, i hope. The width of your shoulders appear to be wider than the trunk of any of the plants. 56" circ. would be equal to 17.8" in diameter, which would be more proportional to your figure. Very impressive, nevertheless! (The trunk, not your figure-LOL)
