COAST REDWOOD (small) Sequoia sempervirens |
|
 |
|
Reaching heights greater than 365 feet, the magnificent Coast Redwood is the world's tallest tree and also one of the world's most long-lived, with life-spans of more than 2,000 years. Fossil records also indicate that the species is among the most ancient of trees; its lineage dating back 160 million years. At maturity, typical Coast Redwoods tower 175 to 300 feet, and have massive trunks 8 to 20 feet in diameter with deeply furrowed, reddish-brown bark. Only 5% of America's ancient Redwoods remain, most under State and National protection. Gift Packaging available. Seed Germination Kit available. |
