::stares hard:: That tree looks very familiar.

It's a metasequoia, growing on the campus of Smith College, behind Neilson Library. The interesting thing about this tree is that it's *enormous* at its base but then it tapers quickly and gracefully, perfectly straight up. It's not nearly as tall as the sequoias I've seen in California.

oh! OK. Coincidentally familiar, not actually.

kinda thinking of planting a bunch of these, though i want cover too

also dawn redwood iirc. there's a nice one in Lexington near the mega magnolia (GIANT leaves, enormous flowers)
