Meanie:

Yes, it's almost as big as yours. It's close to 30ft/10m tall...it used to be bigger before it was chopped back drastically twice last year.

Well, if they could chop another 20ft off of it it would be level with mine!

Meanie:

Also, they would have to cut the trunk...because the trunk diameter is close to 2ft/61cm.
