World's Largest Cashew Tree, Giant tree in Parnamirim, Brazil
This cashew tree extends over 8,500 square meters, reaching a height of 8 meters and featuring branches that spread laterally across the ground.
The tree was planted in December 1888 by fisherman Luis Inacio de Oliveira, who lived to be 93 years old and died under its shade.
The tree celebrates its birthday every December 20th with music performances, cultural presentations, and a special ceremony honoring its supporters.
Visitors can access the tree daily from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM, with paid parking available and a viewing platform offering panoramic views.
Due to genetic mutations, when branches touch the ground they form new roots, creating multiple colonies that belong to the same organism.
