Year of planting approximately 1870.

Origin: Northern California and extreme southern Oregon, where it lives between 0 and 900 meters above sea level.

Introduced to Europe in the mid-19th century, it is currently the tallest living tree in the world with the record held by "Hyperion" at 115.66 meters. This wonder of nature also has a trunk that can exceed 8 meters in diameter and can live over 2000 years. Currently only 5% of sequoia forests are protected from exploitation for timber. Growing in nature in a particular area called the "fog-belt" with a mild and very humid oceanic climate, it has proven to be quite adaptable even in Western Europe, including Italy.
