Sequoiadendron giganteum 'Pendulum' – Sequoiadendron giganteum 'Pendulum'

View prices and availability
A conifer with a bizarre growth pattern, with branches hanging down sharply, but some growing in a more or less horizontal, undulating pattern. These branches have young, very thin twigs that hang straight down. The main trunk sometimes grows in a somewhat undulating fashion as well. This ultimately produces an exceptional, irregular growth pattern that is pre-eminently suited for solitary planting. The growth pattern is quite similar to that of the cultivar 'Barabits Requiem' , however the branches of 'Pendulum' grow less far to the side. Height approx. 15 m and width 3 - 4 m. 'Pendulum' is slightly weaker than 'Barabits Requiem'. Trunk, branches, needles and cones are similar to those of the species. Requires protection against cold wind. Difficult to transplant.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2025.
