Forest bathing while looking down into the ravine from the garage patio.

I planted this dawn redwood about 20 years ago. It is now the tallest tree in my yard.

This was taken in April at the US Nationsl Arboretum. The oldest grove of metasequoia were planted here around 1950.

The trunks get massive, resembling a bald cypress, minus the knuckles. Dawn redwoods do not have knuckle-like root protrusions surrounding their base.
