The 'Gold Rush' is a yellow-leaved cultivar of the popular Dawn Redwood. This majestic tree maintains an upright habit and its mahogany-brown branches form a pyramidal tree with age. The feathery leaves fade to bronze in the autumn, before falling. An ideal choice for a very large garden and for woodland planting. This tree will become quite large so ensure you give it the room that it needs to grow and thrive.
