Once i had a dog.
And as every dog-owner i walked my Jack-Russel-Lady daily.
On our way, we often passed a majestic sequoia-tree.
Every now and than I paused the dog-walk and admired this
magnificent tree.
I often wondered how this Sequoia giganteum came to its
location in my neighbourhood.
Than one day the mistery was solved.
An article in a local newspaper said, that the owner-family of the property
had visited the west-coast of the US about forty years ago.
Among other stops they also visited a very special place of the Giant Forest
in Sequoia National Park/California.
They brought some bristle-cones of a specific tree back home, in order
trying to plant the seeds in the garden. Well, they obviously had success with their
experiment.
No joke, no fake!
On the pictures below you see a veritable descendant
of the famous Seqouia giganteaum named "General Sherman" !!!
