Giant Sequoia – Sequoiadendron giganteum 480 Seeds | Evergreen | Bulk Nursery Pack Fast Growing | Long-Lived | Iconic Specimen Tree | Bonsai Suitable

Grow one of the most massive and awe-inspiring trees on Earth — the Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum). Native to California’s Sierra Nevada Mountains, this legendary evergreen conifer is famous for its enormous trunk diameter, towering height, and remarkable lifespan of 2,000–3,000 years.

In its natural habitat, mature trees reach 200–280 feet tall with trunk diameters of 15–24 feet. Young trees form a dense pyramidal shape, gradually developing into a massive, columnar giant. The thick, cinnamon-brown bark — often 1–2 feet thick — is deeply furrowed and highly fire-resistant. Foliage consists of attractive blue-green, scale-like needles that remain evergreen year-round.

Woody cones (1½–3 inches long) mature over 18–20 months and may remain closed on the tree for years. Giant Sequoias are widely planted as dramatic specimen trees in large landscapes, parks, estates, and arboretums. Young trees are also popular for bonsai and educational growing projects.

This 480-seed bulk pack is ideal for nurseries, reforestation projects, conservation plantings, landscaping businesses, schools, and serious growers seeking larger quantities.

✔ 480 Sequoiadendron giganteum seeds
