Dawn Redwoods


One of a king, very interesting trees. 
Dawn Redwood
Along 19th.
The Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides) is a deciduous conifer that was once thought extinct, native to China, with soft, feathery foliage that turns a striking golden-brown or reddish-bronze in the fall before dropping its needles. This fast-growing tree can reach 70–100 feet tall, prefers moist, well-drained, and slightly acidic soil, and grows in USDA zones 5 through 9, making it a versatile choice for landscapes.
