Centurion, Eucalypt tree in Huon Valley, Tasmania, Australia.
The Centurion reaches a height of 100.5 meters, making it the tallest flowering tree and the highest known Eucalyptus regnans in the world.
Forestry Tasmania employees discovered the Centurion in August 2008 through LiDAR system analysis while assessing state forest resources in the region.
The tree received its name as the hundredth documented noble tree by Forestry Tasmania, correlating with its approximate height measurement at discovery.
The tree stands in a small section of old-growth forest, surrounded by secondary forest, and requires specific guidance to locate due to its remote position.
After surviving the 2019 bushfires that devastated the surrounding area, the tree developed a new hollow at its base while maintaining its remarkable height.
