redwood

Redwood refers to a type of tall, majestic coniferous trees native to California and parts of Oregon. Known for their impressive height, some redwoods are among the tallest trees on Earth, reaching over 350 feet. They have thick, reddish-brown bark that protects them from fire and pests. Redwoods thrive in moist, foggy environments, which help sustain their growth. Besides their natural grandeur, redwoods are valued for their durable, high-quality wood used in construction and furniture. They also play a crucial role in ecosystems, providing habitat and helping maintain environmental health.
