Redwoods

Redwoods are some of the tallest and oldest trees on Earth, primarily found in California. There are two main types: the Coast Redwood, which can reach heights of over 350 feet, and the Giant Sequoia, known for its massive size and volume. These trees thrive in moist environments and can live for thousands of years. Redwoods have thick bark that protects them from fire and pests. They play a vital role in their ecosystems, providing habitat for various wildlife, and are highly valued for their beauty, contributing to conservation efforts and attracting visitors to national parks.
