The nature of our planet is amazing and amazingly diverse. This, for example, vividly evidenced by the real giants of the world of flora - sequoia. Majestic trees grow for more than one millennium, reach a height of one hundred meters, and individual representatives even exceed this threshold. Simply amazing! Of course, such amazing plants at every step you will not meet. So, we'll tell you where the giant sequoia grow.
Where does the sequoia grow in vivo?
Unfortunately, the land of North America is the only place where a sequoia tree grows. The evergreen giant grows on the Pacific coast on a narrow strip of land with a width of up to 75 km and a length of up to 750 km.
They are suitable for the warm and humid climate of Northern and Central California and Southern Oregon. In addition, the sequoia can be found in ravines and gorges, where there are fogs. The most beautiful representatives of the redwood meet on the grounds of the Redwood National Park and in the Sequoia National Park.
Where to grow a sequoia?
In addition to natural growth, the natural giant is grown in the UK, Canada , Hawaii, Italy, New Zealand, South Africa. As you can see, these are mostly countries that have access to the sea.
If we talk about whether the sequoia is growing in Russia, then fortunately, the opportunity to see this beautiful tree in its gigantic growth is also available here. Since the presence of a warm climate and sea moisture is possible only on the Black Sea coast, the place where the redwood grows in Russia is the Krasnodar Territory. In Sochi arboretum there is a small plot, planted so far with not giant evergreen trees. But who knows, maybe in one or two thousand years there will be proud to rise above the neighborhood of the sharp peaks of 100-meter-high sequoias.
