On a stormy September day in 2020, not many things can be finer than discovering a young Coast and a Dawn Redwood on a drive through the Suffolk countryside. The Coast Redwood is on the grassed area in front of the property, whereas the Dawn Redwood took pride of place in the back garden of the same house. The owner believes they were planted around 45 years ago (approximately 1975). |
