Description: Commonly known as the Sierra redwood or giant sequoia, this rare cultivar is distinctive for its handsome, uniformly gray-blue foliage. Fast growing, dense and pyramidal-oval in youth, losing the oval shape as it ages. Its bark is reddish-brown, fibrous, very thick, spongy and deeply furrowed. Leaves are scale-like, sharp-pointed and grow on cord-like branchlets, overlapping in three longitudinal rows.
