I can't find the reference for the height of 50 m anymore. Most sources say 25 m, not 50 m. And the average diameter is about 5 m. The density of the wood is between 0.09 and 0.17 g/cm3, so a typical tree weighs between 44 and 83 tonnes. But mine are only gonna grow to 1.8 m tall or so, and they'll weigh about 25 kg. That's nice, I can even move them by myself. I could walk all around town carrying a baobab on my shoulder. I could dig one out and make my own baobab canoe.
Hmmmm... That's about all the uses I can think of for a baobab just now. In the wild they produce fruit that can be eaten, but I doubt they'll fruit in my apartment.
