Description
Native to the mountains of southern California from 1500' to 6000'. At the lower elevations these trees hide in north side ravines. It is visible in spots from the I-5 and the 118 on the north side of the L.A. basin. This evergreen tree grows 40-60' tall with a 20-30' width. Very dark green foliage. I think this tree could be used throughout California as a drought tolerant tree to replace the non-drought tolerant Coast Redwood. Although the tree is hardy to -10 or below, its root system seems to only tolerate 10-20 degrees F. This California native tree should be more widely planted.
