This full-size Giant Sequoia, among the largest of conifers, produces startling, powdery-blue foliage. The massive tree develops an open habit and wider girth than Sequoiadendron giganteum 'Glaucum', with a main, upright leader and horizontal lower branches that become pendulous with age. Give the striking, mammoth tree, with awl-shaped, light-blue foliage, plenty of room to grow.

Bright light-blue needles (even on inner branches) make this large (but probably smaller than the "giant") pyramidal tree a lovely accent tree; to 12' tall x 6' wide in 10 years). Sun/Med

Bluish white foliage is exceptional against a dark background. Becomes a tall evergreen tree.
