Gold Rush Dawn Redwood
Gold Rush Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides ‘Ogon’)
This fast-growing, pyramidal conifer has soft fern-like gold foliage that tends to not burn in full sun. In spring, the needles emerge nearly chartreuse-yellow, hold their color well into summer, then turn orange brown in fall before dropping. Deeply fissured bark provides winter interest. Makes a fine hardy specimen tree.
