În Europa, crește până la 30 - 50 m în înălțime, cu un diametru al coroanei de aproximativ 8 - 9 m. Scoarța fibroasă poate ajunge la o grosime de 30 - 60 cm, pe care copacul o folosește pentru a se proteja de incendiile de pădure. Ramurile de culoare roșie-maronie sunt ușor căzute, cu capetele în picioare. Pe ramurile principale, acele ascuțite de culoare verde-albastră au o lungime de 1 - 1,2 cm, iar pe crengile tinere au o lungime de 0,3 - 0,6 cm. Sequoiadendron este un arbore monoic, cu conuri ovoidale de culoare roșie-maronie după înflorire, care sunt încă drepte la început, dar care cad la maturitate, în al doilea an. Arborele este dificil de transplantat. Trunchiul celui mai mare copac din lume; copacul General Sherman sau Sequoiadendron giganteum. Fotografiat în Parcul Național Sequoia din California (SUA).
