An ice storm caused a great deal of damage to our giant Sequoia, but it will heal as will we all after 2020!

Love to the sisters and the Monastery. You’ll have a big tree with more character now. There are good reasons why the Sequoia live so long, including powerful storms. Keep up the fine husbandry.

It is beautifull indeed! I have also planted a 4 cm tall giant sequioa seedling in Dalarna Sweden. Also some coastal redwoods.

Thanks you so much. I am so glad to know that although this beautiful tree was damaged, it is still standing and do doubt will for many years to come. Prayers for all of the sisters and the Sequoia and all of the other trees at Queen of Angels. Love.

Once walking in the forest I saw an enormous larch. Maybe almost as big as this sequoia.

DEFINITELY need to prune it and cut a lot of the lower branches almost touching the ground.

The giant sequoia looks great because it toutches the ground with its branches. It gives it the christmas look :-) i never prune mine :-)
@russellfrancis813 Жыл бұрын
I agree, they should prune it. As it gets older the branches will become even larger, and they can become a hazard (some are easily a foot in diameter now). It has a nice canopy nonetheless, and it would be good for the tree and the folks who enjoy it. Due to their longevity and relation to regular fire, mature sequoias often don't have branches for quite a ways up, and they are even more majestic (I would argue).

it will be more sturdy. As when a big tree looses a branch it allows for more air to flow threw. we take large branches off big trees where I liveso the tree is not like a big sail. It is natures way of making the tree that much more resistant to wind storms.

The tree behind is an Atlas cedar!
@jilesbo9175 Жыл бұрын
No it's a Deodar Cedar or otherwise called Cedrus Deodara tree. They became very popular because they are drought resistant and resemble the Western Hemlock tree of the NW which is very drought intolerant. But they are utterly different trees.

@@jilesbo9175 thank you for tge comment, I searched what is it and I found out it is also called Hymalaian cedar. And the appearance of both Hymalaian and Atlas cedar is very semilar even from close distance (same foliage), how did you k ow it ?

@@Dzlyesful I'm a fan of the Aptos Blue Coast Redwood tree. They are a cultivar of the Sequoia Semperviren trees of the Northern California Coast area. They have the deepest green color, dark brown trunk and look very mysterious and enchanting. The only drawback is their leader is difficult to maintain in windy and cold areas. However once established and developed they are the king of trees imo. The Douglas Fir and Giant Sequoia both require almost no maintenance. Both of these trees develop a strong central leader and are not easily affected by wind or cold temperatures. And once established require less moisture than the Coast Redwood. The Western Red Cedar is also a good maintenance free tree but will not do well along I5 in Oregon and California since it requires more precipitation and cooler climate. The Western Hemlock like the Western Red Cedar also requires more rain and cooler weather.

Pretty certain you can. But most people go with seeds. This tree even though refered to as giant sequoia is most likely not the Sequoia Sempervirens but Sequoiadendron Giganteum. It grows in the mountains and putting the seeds into the fridge for a certain time will improve germination.
@notlisztening98212 жыл бұрын
I currently have a lot of cuttings, but they don't seem to root. I irrigate them quite often, but it seems they still die. I have also grown about 200 seedlings over the last couple years and every single one of those has died. Maybe it's a "me" problem, but if you want to place a giant sequoia in your garden, better buy one that's already about 3 years old. People who grow plants for a living just know what they are doing ^^
@blakespower2 жыл бұрын
is that a coast redwood next to it?
@jilesbo9175 Жыл бұрын
No. It's a Deodar Cedar or otherwise called Cedrus Deodara. They sometimes resemble a Western Hemlock but are a completely different tree. There are very few good-looking Coastal Redwood Tree specimens in Oregon or Washington. They grow very well in Washington and Oregon but require constant maintenance to ensure a strong single leader. This is because the leader gets damaged by wind and icy weather. If however the Coastal Redwood tree is maintained and made to develop a strong central leader it will become the most magnificent tree of all the Northwest and North America for that matter. Even surpassing the mighty Douglas Fir.

As much as I enjoy all of God's trees, and indeed His whole creation, I will not pray for a tree. A tree does not have a soul, and does not have the spirit of God living in it. It is a beautiful plant made by God.
