Plant a future forest with these Dawn Redwood tree seeds. Metasequoia glyptostroboides is a fast-growing deciduous conifer once believed extinct and rediscovered in China in the 1940s. Today it is highly valued for its rapid growth, graceful form, and stunning seasonal color.

Its soft, fern-like foliage emerges bright green in spring, deepens through summer, and transforms into a rich coppery orange-bronze in fall. Mature trees develop striking reddish-brown bark that peels in long strips, adding texture and winter interest.

This 400-seed bulk pack is perfect for large properties, reforestation projects, windbreak rows, avenue plantings, conservation efforts, or growing multiple bonsai specimens. Dawn Redwood thrives in moist soil and tolerates wet conditions, even standing water once established.

You will receive:
✔️ 400 Dawn Redwood seeds
✔️ Clearly labeled seed packet
