A column of water in the xylem even in a tall tree normally does not sink because of its weight due to:

1. the exceptionally large diameter of vessels.
2. bubbles too large to be transported even through the pits.
3. the presence of strong ion concentrations near the top of the tree.
4. the tensile strength of a column of water.
