Redwood forest planted at Eden Project

We're planting Europe's first old-growth redwood forest here at Eden! The first sapling was planted in March 2015 - cloned from the remains of a famous Californian redwood that lived 3,500 years. Because redwoods put out sprouts in a circle around their trunk, even when the parent tree dies it lives on in a dozen or so sprouts. The forest will be an eternal living library of genetics.

Amazing. I live in North Carolina and here we have a couple of them which are about 60 years old and over 100 ft. I just ordered myself a seedling to plant. Truly amazing trees.

@@muneebiqbal5584 The seedling came in a few months ago and is already 3 feet tall. I have it planted in a 5 gallon bucket for now.

@@muneebiqbal5584 I think it would have a much better start in a larger pot. I know they love lots of root space for sure.

​@@stevieg2440 Heck yeah, glad to hear! We want Sequoias everywhere. Where did you get it from?

[@stueygewy]

@@proaudiohd There are only certain ranges/regions where they should be. Planted in the wrong place, it can be dangerous as they will die without enough water, and they need TONS of water. Drought-prone, high elevation areas are examples of poor habitats for them.

Nice name. I wish the for clear skies

[@blooky102]

My coastal redwood is 2 years old and as tall as me in a 45L pot, however its sensitive to sunlight as it keeps getting brown branches.

[@blakespower]

time to plant it outside unless you live in a cold climate or too dry

[@gggggggggg-ms8lm]

9 year later I wonder how much they grew

[@raphlvlogs271]

key word: sustainability.
