Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to grow a Giant Sequoia
(Sequoiadendron giganteum) from a twig planted in the ground. Does it
has to be cut a special way, at a certain length, at a certain time of
the year ? Does it need to stay in water first ? How long does it take
for growth to start ?

I would like to grow one, but I only have access to a single (big -
100') specimen that look mature, but doesn't bear cones (I don't know
why).

Is it possible to do the same with Redwood (Sequoiadendron sempervirens)
?

Thanks,

Marc
