This beautiful dawn redwood looks striking at any time of year. It’s in an arboretum near where I live in southeastern Pennsylvania. The Dawn Redwood, or Metasequoia, is native to China. It’s been planted here in a relatively sheltered area of the arboretum. This one is perhaps 3 ft in diameter toward the base, and maybe 80 ft high.
