You can't tell much by these pics but this one is over a 100 feet . Because it was grown in competition for sunlight the canopy is different than those other cottonwoods . It's around 5 foot at the base and splits about 15 feet up into two .
Oh yes they get extremely plump about the mid section if they don't have to reach the sky for sunlight .
I'll take a picture tomorrow of the one in my woods that had to get above the average 90 plus tree height to reach the light .
