Sequoiadendron giganteum at 3062 - 141 Street - Surrey, BC - Sequoioideae Trees on Waymarking.com

Towering over the suburban landscape, these two Sequoiadendron giganteum trees stand as living monuments to time and resilience. One rises to nearly 30 metres, the other just shy of 25, their massive conical forms commanding attention even amid the tidy lawns and carefully planted ornamental shrubs. Their dense green foliage cascades from top to bottom in thick layers, giving each tree a full, healthy appearance that speaks to decades of growth under favourable conditions. These giant sequoias, though far from their native groves in the Sierra Nevada, appear to have taken well to their adopted environment. The needles show no signs of browning or disease, and the branches maintain their symmetry and vigour—an encouraging sign in a species that requires space, light, and deep watering to thrive. Set back slightly from the curb, they have been spared the damage that often comes with heavy foot or vehicle traffic. There’s a sense of quiet strength in the way they rise up from the earth, undisturbed by the slow changes around them. Their presence hints at both the past and future, reminding passersby that with care and patience, something extraordinary can grow even in the most ordinary of places.
