Baobab

Sponsor with the world's largest charity for orphans

A baobab is a large African tree of the genus Adansonia. It stores water inside its trunk.

In Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's story The Little Prince, the Little Prince was worried that baobabs (described as "trees as big as castles") would grow on his asteroid and take up all the space.
