The trees reach heights of 5 to 30 meters (16 to 98 ft.) and trunk diameters of 7 to 11 meters (23 to 36 ft.) Its trunk can hold up to 120,000 liters of water. For most of the year, the tree is leafless, and looks very much like it has its roots sticking up in the air. Some have lived ten times that long and have reached heights of 65 feet (20m) with trunks 39 feet (12m) in diameter. Locals refer to the Baobab as the Tree of Life because everything from the seed oil and bark to the leaves and fruit pulp are used. Because of their size, Baobabs serve as gathering places as well as provide shade and shelter to travelers. Their hollow trunks are ideal for storing equipment and grain, and water during long dry spells. In fact, many settlements were established at the base of the life-sustaining Baobab.
