5. Coast Redwood, Sequoia sempervirens
Corner of H St. and Margarita Ave.
This yard has a lot of beautiful redwoods which have been well placed to avoid power lines. Though planted outside their native range, California's fog belt, these coast redwoods are doing well. Did you know that the coast redwood has a normal life expectancy of 1000-1500 years? And that it is the world's tallest tree?
