Why plant Amber Glow Dawn Redwood?
Just a good-looking rebel who plays by his own rules! Amber Glow Dawn Redwood is a cool and charismatic conifer that doesn’t follow the crowd. Instead of plain green leaves, it offers dazzling foliage that emerges an orangey-gold color and matures to acid-yellow. Instead of prickly needles, it sports foliage that looks and feels as soft as feathers. Rather than holding its leaves all year like most conifers, it drops them in fall, revealing a rugged, sculpted framework. Let Amber Glow Dawn Redwood be a ray of light in your landscape and a trendsetter in your neighborhood!
The Dawn Redwood Tree has quite a story to tell. For the longest time, it was known only in fossil form—no one had seen it alive and in person. The tree once coexisted with Tyrannosaurus Rex, but scientists believed it had gone the way of the dinosaurs and become extinct millions of years ago. Lo and behold, in the 1940s, a small population of Dawn Redwoods was discovered in China, and the obscure conifer soon become a prized landscape tree around the world. Amber Glow is a seedling of a yellow-leaved Dawn Redwood called Ogon, a.k.a. Gold Rush. It is more compact, more heat, and more sun tolerant than Ogon.
How to use Amber Glow Dawn Redwood in the landscape?
Amber Glow Dawn Redwood really shows some swagger in fall! Before shedding its leaves for the winter, its chartreuse foliage turns a rich, rusty orange color. This tree looks spectacular when planting in a row along the perimeter of a property. It is also perfect for a large specimen tree in an open landscape. Radiant!

How Does Shipping Work?
Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our big trees, sizes XL and bigger, require expert delivery and care, that means our extra-large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care. We deliver your trees and plants directly to you. Ask Bower & Branch about planting services – we'd be happy to assist in installation.
*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.
Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.
Shipping Delays:
From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
