| The camera lens cannot do justice to the peculiar sight of a whole street of modern houses each containing one or more Giant Redwoods laid out in a row of nine across their small back gardens. Another tree (Tree 2) is at one end of the row standing on public land and is therefore more accessible. Tree 3 is at the other end of the row and sits in the back garden of the first house, enabling easy measurement of its height. There is one other tree (Tree 1) close by in the same group and also on public land. |
