Dawn Redwood |
The Metasequoia is a dense, pyramidal, deciduous conifer with a central leader and under positive cultural conditions, performs as a rapid grower. It has an opposite branching pattern, with branchlets of long, simple needles that appear to be flattened. During the spring, its foliage is a bright reddish-brown color that matures to a light green tone, and an autumn shade ranging from a tawny pink to golden bronze. Its furrowed bark is attractive, orange-brown to red-brown and peels in vertical strips.
