Tree Story
About Western Redcedar
Another magnificent tree from the forests of the Pacific Northwest, Western Redcedar (Thuja plicata) is one of the largest members of the Cypress Family, achieving heights over 270 feet and trunks more than 24 feet across. Also known as “Giant Arborvitae” and “Canoe Cedar,” this species was among the trees most sacred to American Indians, who called it the “Tree of Life,” and used it for canoes, totem poles, shamans’ drums, medicines, and a wide variety of everyday implements. A pest resistant species whose sprays of dark green foliage never discolor, Western Redcedar is the official tree of British Columbia.
About Jonsteen’s Seedlings
All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California’s Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values — a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!

All of our trees are guaranteed to arrive healthy and in good condition. If your tree perishes despite your honest efforts, we will be happy to replace it with a small-sized seedling for just the cost of shipping/handling. You can learn more about our guarantee and tree replacement policy here.
Size Chart
Seedling Size Chart: Medium
Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.
