I'm suggesting the addition of giant Redwood trees. I imagine they would be pre-generated only or if they could be planted they should take a really long time to grow. They could have trunks that are 3x3 and be close to the height of the map itself.
EDIT: So some ideas from people who have posted. The trees could range from 2x2 to 3x3 trunks. The biome for it or rarity of one tree would most likely be quite high. If plant able, the trees would have to go through multiple stages of growth and slowly get bigger until the reach their full height. This would work with trees that exist at the time of creating the world as well (so basically preexisting redwoods that are still small).
Awesome, but only in specific biomes. More like 5 to 8 blocks across and having them slowly grow to there big size.
Giant Sierra Trees should grow in even rarer biome "clusters" and be 10 to 15 blocks thick, grow 20 times as slow as a redwood, and grow from low terrian to be HUGE.
I seem to recall seeing some large tree mods. With giant redwood, they could actually grow very slowly like reeds or cactus but on a larger scale.
Yeah, I was thinking along those lines too. So maybe they would grow like regular trees, but they wouldn't stop growing and go through phases of growth until they reached their maximum.
Maybe some of the redwoods should be hollow like some of them really are. Also they should grow about 30 blocks above sea level because they grow on the mountain coast.

But I'm not supporting your idea until you flesh it out more.
