. Cyclopedia of American horticulture, comprising suggestions for cultivation of horticultural plants, descriptions of the species of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and ornamental plants sold in the United States and Canada, together with geographical and biographical sketches. Gardening. SEQUOIA SEQUOIA 1659 gigantic forest trees, with trunks usually heavily but- tressed at base, covered with thick, fibrous bark, deeply and widely lobed; heartwood dark red, soft, durable, straight-grained; sapwood very thin and nearly white: Ivs. persistent, alternate, often dimorphic (especially on young trees): tis. naked, monoecious, solitary, the stami- nate terminal or axillary; stamens numerous: cones maturing in one season. Once widely distributed in several species throughout the interior of North America and parts of Europe, but now limited to two species, which are confined to the mountains of California. The wood of , 9. sempervireus at present forms the bulk of the redwood lumber in the trade, and is used on the Pacific coast wherever a light, durable, easily worked material is desired. Most wooden buildings are constructed with this lumber in California, and it is sometimes exported to Europe to be employed as a sub- stitute for red cedar in the manufacture of lead-pencils. Logs with a curly grain are highly prized by cabinet- makers, from whom they have received the name "curly I'edwood." The wood of S. gigantea resembles that of S. semper- vireus, but is coarser-grained and lighter (in weight), and is therefore not adapted to as wide use as the latter. It is very durable in contact with the soil, however, and is widely used for coarser construction work, ties, fence- posts, vineyard stakes, shingles, and the like. As an ornamental subject, S. seniperrirens will be valuable wherever it is hardy. It is rather insistent upon a cool, moist, foggy climate, however, and is in this respect inferior to the other species, although a va- riety known as S. sempervireus, v
