Miss Grace Dwarf Dawn Redwood

Metasequoia glyptostroboides 'Miss Grace'

This wonderful little tree gets oohs and ahs all year long, but especially in the spring as its chartreuse buds begin to emerge in a sparse fernlike pattern. The leaf pattern combined with the interesting branch structure gives a bonsai like feeling. It really is eye catching and a great centerpiece for your patio or deck. I suspect ours would be a little more full with more sun exposure, but the open growth is actually very attractive on this tree.
