California Redwoods, also known as Coastal Redwoods
Imagine growing one of the largest living things on earth! A truly amazing tree that can grow more than 300 feet tall and 25 feet in diameter. The red-brown bark is soft and thick, and in its grown state can be up to 20 inches thick. Dark green needles are the perfect color against the red tree trunks. These very large conifers are native to the west coast. This giant evergreen makes a most interesting bonsai tree as well as a standard.
