Gold Rush Dawn Redwood is a hardy evergreen conifer, a fast-growing living fossil with feathery, deciduous needles. Gold Rush Dawn Redwood carries yellow foliage through the season and performs best in full sun with moderate watering once established. This evergreen matures to roughly 50-70 feet tall and 20-30 feet wide. It is ideal for anchoring a bed with colour and form that holds right through winter, offering year-round privacy and winter structure. Hardy to zones 4-8 and simple to care for, it settles in quickly and performs year after year. A layer of mulch helps hold moisture and keeps roots cool in summer.
