Thanks to Shane McCulloch for sending us this picture of a giant sequoia. Shane said it is located on Laburnum Drive in Trail, British Columbia, Canada. He found it by accident doing a delivery when he went to the wrong house and saw it there. He didn't even think there were any sequoias in the interior of British Columbia.

Shane McCulloch sent us a picture of a giant sequoia tree located in the Kootenay region of British Columbia in a city called Nelson. He talked to the owner and he said the sequoia was planted in 1954, the crown is still intact but many branches on one side were trimmed due to being close to a power line. The owner says that it was one of two planted but only this one survived. He also said that he may get rid of the tree due to his fear of the roots affecting the basement walls.

One of 17 giant sequoias planted many years ago in Victoria British Columbia. This was taken by fulltime painter Brandy Bain from this area. The giant sequoia is a gentle giant and awesome and inspiring to this painter and all of us. -

Sara from Saskatchewan sent this image. My family has found a small seedling in our yard that can only be a sequoia. We traveled to Sequoia National Park a couple years ago and collected a few seeds, we lost a couple of our seeds and the ones we tried to grow failed so we had given up, but the lost seeds must have blown out in the yard to give us a sequoia. We're wondering what we should do about the winter when it grows, because Saskatchewan winters are long and get close to -40 degrees at least once per year. It has survived the past two, but that would be because it is still shorter than the snow line. -
