California redwood giant tree seeds. We also carry larger packs in our other listings. Redwood, also known as “coast redwood” (sequoia sempervenis), are ancient giants. The tallest living beings on earth reaching heights of up to 360 feet tall, and typically live anywhere from 5001,000 years old. Descendents from an even more ancient lineage that goes into the prehistoric dinosaur era of north america. Redwood is a rapidly growing tree which may average 50 feet in the first 20 years. That combined with it’s unique towering presence make’s it a must have for any bonsai collection. Redwood seeds are not the easiest to germinate. With a germination rate of only 5%, plant at least 20 in a shallow container using clean potting soil. Plant shallow as the seeds need light in order to germinate. Wrap in plastic to keep moist in a cool area with “indirect” light. No sun at first as they must not become dry during germination. As soon as the tree is a few inches tall, it can be moved into a larger container.
