Common name Giant Sequoia, Sierra Redwood
The Sequoia is a genus in the family Cupressaceae that contains only one species, Sequoia sempervirens. It is the tallest tree in the world and it can live more than 2,000 years.

Their cousins the dawn redwoods (Metasequoia glyptostroboides), and Sierra redwood (Sequoiadendron giganteum) are far superior as isolated specimen trees, but can also look splendid in a grove.
