Product details

The Dawn Redwood, botanically known as Metasequoia glyptostroboides, is a remarkable tree that is considered a living fossil and has witnessed Earth's history over millions of years. Originally discovered in China, this tree has captured the hearts of many gardening enthusiasts since its introduction to Europe in 1944. With its reddish-brown trunk and magnificent foliage that shines in warm tones during autumn, the Dawn Redwood is a true eye-catcher in any garden or park. It is not only aesthetically pleasing but also extremely resilient, capable of withstanding temperatures as low as -30°C, making it ideal for the colder regions of Europe. The cultivation of seeds is possible year-round and requires a cold period followed by sowing on moist seedling soil. Under optimal conditions, the seeds germinate within 3 to 6 weeks, making the care and cultivation of this unique tree a rewarding endeavor.
