Giant Sequoia, Sierra Redwood, Big |
This dense, rapid grower has the potential to attain a height of 300' and 40-50' spread at maturity. Its small foliage has a grey-green to blue-green color, which is awl-shaped and spreads all around the shoot. The bark, with its highly distinctive red-brown color and soft, thick, resilient nature, becomes furrowed with age. The 2-3" cones produced by this tree are attractive as well.
