Sequoia

Sequoia refers to two types of giant trees, the Coast Redwood and the Giant Sequoia, both native to California. These trees are among the tallest and oldest living organisms on Earth, some exceeding 300 feet in height and thousands of years in age. They have thick bark that protects them from fire and pests. Sequoias play a crucial role in their ecosystems, providing habitat for various wildlife. Their majestic size and longevity make them iconic symbols of nature's grandeur, often found in national parks where they are protected and celebrated.
