This exceptional cultivar stands apart from traditional Coast Redwoods with its blue-tinted foliage and refined growth habit. While standard Coast Redwoods are known for their towering presence, Sequoia sempervirens ‘Xeno’ offers a more controlled, columnar form that fits perfectly into contemporary gardens.
Each needle cluster displays a stunning blue hue that intensifies during cooler months, creating a remarkable contrast against other garden plants. The foliage is notably more compact than the species, with smaller, denser needles that create a more sophisticated silhouette. This architectural form brings the prestige of growing a redwood while maintaining garden-friendly proportions.
As part of our specialist redwood collection, these ‘Xeno’ specimens have been carefully nurtured to preserve their distinctive characteristics. The cultivar’s upright growth pattern creates elegant vertical lines in the garden, perfect for modern landscape designs. Whether used as a standalone specimen or in groups, ‘Xeno’ delivers year-round impact.
Unlike its giant parent species, Sequoia sempervirens ‘Xeno’ maintains a more manageable size without losing the inherent majesty of a redwood. The dense, blue-tinted foliage provides excellent structure and creates a striking focal point in any garden setting. Its compact nature makes it suitable for both small urban gardens and larger landscapes.
Plant Sequoia sempervirens ‘Xeno’ in a sunny or partly shaded position in well-draining soil. While hardy once established, young plants benefit from shelter against harsh winds. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. The compact growth habit means less pruning is required than the species. Apply a mulch in spring to retain moisture and suppress weeds. In colder areas, consider providing winter protection for young specimens until established.
