0005: Sequoia Aptos Blue

We planted the three redwoods of the day, including this second Sequoia sempervirens 'Aptos Blue', or "Aptos Blue Redwood", in a row continuing from two previously planted smaller redwoods.

It's interesting that the Coastal Redwood is the Sequoia genus, though the Giant Sequoia are the Sequoiadendron genus in the same family.

Family: Cupressaceae (koo-press-AY-see-ay)
Genus: Sequoia (see-KWOY-uh)
Species: sempervirens (sem-per-VY-renz)
Cultivar: Aptos Blue
