Your bid is for the dawn redwood landscape tree that is pictured. The picture was taken on 9/5/08. The tree will be shipped in the pot that it is growing in to protect the roots and eliminate shock in transplanting.    The dawn redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides) is native to China. Thought to have been extinct for millions of years this plant was found growing in a few isolated sites in China in the 1940s. The dawn redwood is a very hardy species growing in zones A3, 3-10, and 14-24. This redwood is very fast growing at 4 to 6 feet per year. The dawn redwood has not been in cultivation long enough to determine the maximum garden size. It is safe to say that this species can become a huge tree. The dawn is not well suited to low desert areas.   Specifications:   ID#: 4   age: 2   height: 26"   trunk diameter: 5/16"   branching spread: 18"   picture taken: 8/27/08         On Nov-27-07 at 16:28:17 PST, seller added the following information: Use the FREE Counters 1 million sellers do - Vendio!
