Hey,

The largest group of living gymnosperms is the conifers and to be specific the  coniferous Coast Redwood is the Tallest living gymnosperm, it is also the tallest tree on the earth. with a height of 380.30 feet.

The conifers are pines, cypresses, and relatives.

I hope this helps.

Hello Aspirant,

Gymnosperms are flowerless plants that produce cones and seeds. Largest group of living gymnosperms is the conifers (pines, cypresses, and relatives), followed by cycads, Gnetophytes (Gnetum, Ephedra and Welwitschia), and Ginkgo (a single living species).

good luck
