We have mixed feelings here at Warner's this week. We've had 2 Metasequoia glyptostroboides, or Dawn Redwood, here for a few years and now they are gone, leaving a gaping hole in our tree yard! This week they sold to one lucky customer! We'd become quite attached to these beauties, that were well over 25'. This particular large-growing conifer can reach up to 110', with a width of a 30-40'. Their delicate finely textured needles which are medium-green, turn a beautiful orange to red-brown before dropping in late Fall. The shaggy bark with reddish highlights is quite attractive also. A nice specimen to have in the yard...if you have the room! We are, however, glad they went to a good home and are getting out of their containers!!
