Grow one of the most massive and awe-inspiring trees on Earth — the Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum). Native to the western slopes of California’s Sierra Nevada Mountains, this legendary evergreen conifer is renowned for its enormous trunk, towering height, and extraordinary lifespan of up to 3,000 years.
In its natural habitat, mature trees can reach 200–280 feet tall with trunk diameters up to 24 feet. Young trees feature a graceful pyramidal-oval shape that gradually develops into a massive columnar form. The thick, cinnamon-brown bark is deeply furrowed and may grow 1–2 feet thick, helping protect the tree from fire and environmental stress.
Blue-green, scale-like needles densely clothe the branches year-round. Woody cones (1½–3 inches long) mature over 18–20 months and may remain closed for years. Giant Sequoias are prized as dramatic specimen trees in large landscapes and parks, and young trees are also suitable for bonsai cultivation.
This 60-seed pack is ideal for larger plantings, nursery starts, bonsai growers, and those looking to cultivate a truly historic and monumental evergreen.
