You can grow these from semi-mature wood cuttings, but like the germination
rate of their seeds, your success rate will be somewhat low for the number
of cuttings attempted.  If you get one out of ten to root and then survive,
you'll be doing good.  Cuttings should be taken in the late summer, about
6"-10" long, be sure they are limb ends with a positive lead.  Slice them
off on 45� angles, dust generously with a rooting hormone powder or paste
and place in half and half mixture of moist sand and sterile potting soil
and cover the tray with a clear plastic film tent.  You will need to keep it
out of the direct sun to prevent overheating and mist them daily in the
mornings.   If, after all of this you get some to live, consider yourself
very lucky!

The easy way out of all this is to just go ahead and buy a Chinese Dawn
Redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides).   They are very pretty, easy to
grow, and get very large, very fast!
